Wish Pat could be home, (in a dementia care home) to make me feel "guilty" for blowing $$$$$ on Model A stuff. But she wouldn't though.
Once she said, "Why don't you sell all my GOLD and buy yourself something FUN!" Bill W.

Default Re: What % to spend on your hobby

Formula:

1. Pay all your bills (no debt)
2. Tithe to your church
3. Save 10%
4. Be sure your wife has money (she probably has it all)

The rest, plus anything you might make on the side or from gains or sales in the hobby go back in.

If you can't do the above, find another hobby! No kidding. But who makes money at golf or tennis other than Tiger? It is a hobby or maybe a disease, or both!

Bill, Bill here, (sounds like an echo, echo, echo)
Ask your wife, for me, where do ladies hide their "mad money?"
While sufering dementia at home,Pat complained pathetically about being "broke." I, very unselfishly, emtpied my wallet of $72.00 and put it in her warm hand.
She's been in a fine care home for 2 1/2 years, and I still haven't found her "STASH PLACE!" Bill W.
