Wife...car...wife...car up-date: SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!
well, i used the new car depreciation approach as well as the 'it makes me happy, thus helping us be happy' approach and heres what i got:
"I'll give you your Healey but, you're right we need to do some negotiating."
"Your hobby can never affect the "basic" needs of our family (housing, food, utilities, clothes for the kids ...)"
(kidS being the operative word...we only have one right now...)
"I want to go on vacations on a regular basis and I want to make this family priority."
"I foresee me needing some new clothes for fall/winter, and I would like a lump sum to spend at my lesiure without worrying about it affecting your car"
Not to bad, fair i'd say!
Let the games BEGIN!
