I never understand why people do this? Ask strangers what they should buy or how to approach their partner. Comes down to your own choice. Only you know your partner,your budget and your household expenses.If too much, don't, if you can,do it. It is ONLY a toy. Not being a dick, but no point asking anybody here. It's a toy collector board. You know what most people are gonna say here. Goodluck in YOUR decision . We are telling him what he wants to hear and if he gets in trouble we'll get the blame 😆 This is the sacrifice we must make sometimes for the glory of others. |

My wife is fine with my collecting. Besides backing this project is a hell of a lot cheaper than the trip to Disney World she insists on in October.

I honestly wanted people's personal experiences and not advice directed to me. If you re-read my original post, I'm saying broadly speaking what are your experiences with your spouse about collecting or spending money. I was just looking for those kind of stories. |

My wife and I combine all our money, this pays all the bills and savings etc.. We each get “pocket money” that we can spend on anything we want (kids also get this). That said, we are extremely fortunate in that we both have great secure jobs, so it works well for us. I m on my second marriage and from my personal experience, it’s important to have something of your own.

As long as all bills are paid, the kids are well taken care of & there’s food on the table I say go for it within reason

Careful bro….the very same thing happened to me just a little while back when I tried discussing whether or not to give up my display room to my girlfriend’s youngest son (which I ended up not having to do btw) …..with the exception of a few people on here the whole entire thread got turned around, blew out of proportion & became a personal attack on me instead of being about what it was intended to be about …..believe me it was a lesson learned & I’ll never let that happen again….just be careful what you post, what questions you ask & pay special attention to how you word everything because an innocent post can spiral south & get out of control quicker than you realize …..oh also, never give any more details than you need to get your point/question across because that’s usually the biggest mistake |

I just always see these posts heading in one direction. Obviously your family comes first and foremost over toys,which you know. Only you know your situation was all I meant. If I came off as a douche, I apologize, not my intention. |

If you have to ask for something like this to your wife, then you already know the answer. Spend that $250 elsewhere.

Happy wife, happy life, just ask her and if she says no… do it anyways 😅. But truly if u have the extra money then spend it on what u want. Just also let her buy something in the future that is stupid money on something
