There were quite a number of guys into RC that would cash their paychecks at the hobby shops so their wifes would not find out how much they really made.

One guy even lost a plane kit. He would hurry home with stuff and hide it in the insulation in his attic. Don't understand how explained when they appeared later. Maybe he bought her something first. He hid one kit and never found it. We think his wife did.

My nephew had the best wife money relationship I've heard of. She was overspending. They each got their own accounts without the other's name. They sat down and figured who was responsible for what bills and split the extra. Any checks were deposited to my nephews account and he would write is wife her part of the check.

This way if either over spent and didn't pay a bill they ran out of whatever that person was responsible for, ie food, gas to get around, lights etc. Told me she quit overspending by not buying herself clothes. Said they only went without food for two days one month and never got anything she was responsible for turned off.
