Some of you may have read my last question concerning my wanting to grow a mullet. (your answers were not very helpful, however) as you could probably tell, i’m a rock ‘n’ roll kinda guy and recently a pipe burst in the basement where i keep my Beatles memorabilia. Alot of it was damaged buy the water and it’s going to cost about $3,600 to restore what can be salvaged. My wife doesnt think it very important and doesnt want me to get my collection restored, but i feel its my only release ! I love going down there and just letting my body sway to the Strawberry Feilds Lp and gazing at my Ringo poster. How can i make her see that I need these things to be happy?
She wants the money for a holiday but i burn in the sun so i can’t partake in any activities anyway!
start doing something far worse like robbing banks to make her appreciate your hobby a little more
What’s stopping you from doing both?
Who says that this is all the money you will ever have? If you need to get more money to do both, then go get more money to do both. If neither of you can do the thing you want until you get more money, then you’ll both be motivated even more.
Have fun working together to create more money.
I hope this helps.

Um, I supported your mullet fantasy so I assume we are all good. Restoring your Beatles stuff is going to cost you a lot more than you think. Maybe do it a little at a time. I imagine you can start by looking for RIngo on ebay. Really, you like Ringo? Go figure. I would think you’d be rockin "Octopus’s Garden." good luck with all that.
PS: robbing banks is prolly not the way to go, altho an interesting concept. Maybe stealing little old ladies’ Social Secuity checks would be safer.

You two can’t compromise, seriously? My way or no way? Wtf?
How about picking 5 things you don’t want to live without and restore only those? If you don’t have a lot of cash and you wanted to burn $3,600 to restore some beatles memorabilia – I’d laugh
Spend some on a holiday (where you can get what you want AND she can get what she wants – going on holiday does not mean you have to sit in the sun). Maybe, just maybe you two could find a place where they would have an antique store that had Beatles memorabilia and you could pick something out to remember your holiday forever . . . wow, what a concept (compromise).
