Do NOT listen to your wife......at least not until all the credit cards are maxed out and the house is in foreclosure; THEN you could ask her to see if her parents might float you a loan. The truth is, they don't want us to have any fun, and look for any excuse to punish us (sometimes just for something we MIGHT do in the future). Why else would they make us eat broccoli and tofu, or go to see a Broadway musical, or go to church during a NFL playoff game, or buy a minivan, etc. We need to stand up for our rights. Whoops, gotta go. My wife's calling me to dinner. Hope she at least put a little butter on that broccoli.
