My wife often helps me debug and program my vintage
computers!
She has gone collecting, but in general I try to keep her away from
places where old stuff gets exchanged for money, lest she get the idea
that this is a reversible process!
I used to tell my wife when I was selling stuff, but she always
assumed I was going to do something with the money other than
reinvest it in my hobby. Now I don't talk about selling stuff.
And we do have an airplane too, but its not kept in a
hanger. Thats
an expense thats not needed. A tie-down parking spot at my local
airport (FIT) only costs about $40 a month.
I guess that would work, but here in Texas I'd be worried about
wind damage.
