    Wife: Let's take the kids and go to the beach.
    Me: I can't, I have lots to do.
    Wife: You need to spend more time with us.
    Me: If only there was a way I could work on the beach.
    Me: To bad the beach doesn't have computers.
    Wife: You should get a laptop.
    Me: Where's my keys.

    Result: New laptop and a trip to the beach.

    Is this a joke or is it for real? In any case, it's funny.

    It kinda reminds me of a quote from NBA basketball player, Patrick Ewing: "Yeah we make a lot money, but we spend a lot of money too".

    Men may make more money but women spend more. :)

    Yeah,, she fell for that because she wants you to spend time with family!

    She is smart actually and so lovely to do everything to make family complete (even pays for new laptop). :cool:

    You don’t know how true this statement is. My wife controls all the cash I never get to buy anything without her approval. :(

    hey man, you've got to be smarter and learn to secretly hoard... a little here and there and you'll have enough for a treat or two, here and then... :)

    just make sure you don't get caught... :eek:
