Message:: [QUOTE="GDJMSP, post: 1304, member: 112"]Here's a saying that you have all heard before, I think; "Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink." Shipwrecked people shout it as they drift upon the sea. It sure is bad, but the saddest cry I've heard in my whole life Is the one you hear when you lend an ear to the Coin Collecter's Wife. Money, money everywhere, but not a dime to spend. If this keeps up our marriage is coming to end. Money in the dresser, drawer, and money on the shelf; But there isn't one thin dime to spent upon myself. Lincoln cents and Mercury dimes and Washington quarters too... Some of them are old and worn and some of them are new I wish my husband cared as much about the way I look... The paycheck doesn't seem to mean a thing to me, 'cause hubby needs a 1909-S Lincoln VDB. As soon as he gets the coins, he'll be looking for some other, I think I'd be better off if I went home to mother. One day in desperation, I took a half-dollar; He said it was a commemorative and you should have heard him holler! Another time I took a coin that he said was a "proof"; When I told him that I spent it, I thought he'd raise the roof! With all that money 'round the house, we're really very poor; I'm getting sick and tired of it, of that I'm really sure. So, I advise you, single girls, if you want a happy life Don't marry a coin collector and be a coin Collector's Wife; Shouting "money, money everywhere and not a dime to spend"; Don't ever let a coin collector be more than just a friend.[/QUOTE]
