being broke does not work I still buy stuff been lay-ed off for 8 months now and starting to look at jobs for places like Mal mart. Or buying a business they will lend a person that has not worked for a while allot of money and I mean allot of money. It does help my credit score is very high.

My wife has some sort of radar in her head that lets her know within 45 seconds if I have spent any money.

"Sir, that will be $300.00, (swipe visa) (30 seconds later the phone rings) Hey Honey, so I was just curious what you bought at *******"

My wife and I have an allowance system for mad money. We both get X amount of dollars per month to spend on what ever we want. Corals / Fish / Crack / Liquor and Whores, whatever. If spend above my allowance the above happens, which is a good deterant!

If we do it together is comes from the money budgeted for entertainment, not our allowance!

My LFS (Crack dealer) is evil. He phones to let me know when stuff is coming in and what has arrived and holds stuff that he thinks I will want. He E-mails me order lists to see if I want to special order anything like a gem tang just above his landed price(came so close to getting one), and lets me run an account if I don't have a lot of extra cash. He thinks it's funny when he sees my number on call display he answers the phone, "whats crack-a-lacking man" or he phones and says, " you should see the crack that just came in".

Good luck

Heh!

I actually have mentioned it to some of you, that I feel like a drug dealer sometimes.

The fun part of it all on my end? is to make the odd seasoned fishkeeper squeal when they see something they haven't before or in years.

I find it a challenge finding the hard to get stuff for some of you guys/gals, and keeping people interested.
