<p>[QUOTE="Jason Hoffpauir, post: 2485689, member: 67527"]I had to have the same conversation with my wife...UNTIL I explained it to her in the most simplistic way...YES honey I do spend quite a bit on coins; but I am spending money to make more money later down the road...after I explained to her that I buy low and wait for spot to go higher which in turn means I will make WAY more money later on down the road then she understands. Also, I am sure your wife likes certain things too...what I mean is this my wife loves ballerina's. So, I found several nice 1992 Russian Ballerina Silver coins that she loved and purchased them for her.</p><p><br /></p><p> I got her involved and then it was different. But the other comment people are saying is right...communicate with your wife and NEVER, and I repeat NEVER make silver purchases behind her back...this opens up Pandora's box and it goes from lying on coin purchases to have an affair with half the women on this planet. Trust me I have been there. LOL. </p><p><br /></p><p>I basically explained to my wife that I bought 100 oz of silver when silver was $4/oz. in 2003 which at the time cost me $400 dollars; now silver is close to $20 so now I tell her I have $2,000. She understands those zero's behind the 2 so it was an easy sell. Now she just tells me things she wants me to get for her that is either made in silver or gold and I comply. Easy Peezy!!!
