How to hide tools from the wife

Flashing on the guy who got a Porsche for 25 bucks. Husband leaves wife--tells her "sell the car, send me the money", so she sold it for

Wife to husband: "You haven't used any of that wood in 2 years so I sold it. They just loaded it into a truck. I don't know why they looked so happy. Geez, it's just wood."

SWMBO said that she's going through all my lumber now.

So does the lumber need to be better organized, could be a win. :)

Like the guy who acquired a give-away price of $200 Porsche. A year later he left his wife, told her to sell the Porsche and send him the money. She sold it for $200.

Nah, I'm really not worried about her finding my stash. The only time she ever goes in the basement is to fetch Christmas decorations and I know pretty much when that's going to happen. ;-)

Yeah, HOW MUCH did you PAY for that stack of lumber.

Interestng. 5 posts up was a similar (and by similar, I mean exact) situation involving a Porsche, except that one only cost $25.

It's amazing that 2 different guys were able to buy really cheap Porches, then leave their wifes and the wifes ended up selling the cars for exactly what the guys paid for them.

Who would have thought that could happen even once, nevermind twice.

Spooky.

Dave's wife got eight times the money for the Porsche as J Clark's. I'd say that Dave got a good deal!

Urban legends get better with each telling.

Same guy, same wife, same Porsche - adjusted for inflation.
