Yeah, they b*tch and moan about our financial decisions, but fail to disclose how 1 freaking round of golf costs them $200+, adding up to over $5-6k throughout the year. Or how many tens of thousands they've spent on vacations and travel. In the end, they don't understand that their leisure activities are no different than ours, because they just don't "get it."

And yet, I find that in my group of friends, I'm usually the one driving because everyone wants to be in my cars, since they're the most fun and interesting. Go figure.

Bless your wife, she's a saint. My wife would have left me after the 5th car She refused to endorse the STI purchase when I almost bought it, but only let it slide since the money was already spent on the M3 and I'd be getting a check back with the Subaru, so no additional funds would be taken out.
