<p>[QUOTE=&quot;beef1020, post: 1373520, member: 24544&quot;]I justify it as spending money.&nbsp; My wife and I look over our budget and make priorities, with the first priority being pay yourself.&nbsp; We set a savings rate we want to reach, then we budget for expenses, with the money left over divided between the two of us for spending.&nbsp; So she does not care what I spend it on as long as I don&#039;t talk too much about my coins <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /></p><p><br /></p><p>Not making a moral argument here, just a point to consider for those that lie about how much they spend.&nbsp; At some point the collection will be sold, and the person you are currently lying to could be the one doing the selling.&nbsp; That $500 coin you bought but told her was only worth $35 will get sold for $35.&nbsp; One of the best ways to protect your collection&#039;s value is by being honest with whomever you assume will be responsible for it&#039;s dispersion about it&#039;s value.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
