I think I am sick.....

[Astroman]

Today I got $200 and what did I do with it?

Spend it on Astro equipment.......?
Spend it on my Wife and Kids........?
Gave it to the wife in an attempt to gain brownie points towards a new imaging setup...........?
Gave it all to charity............?
Bought shares in IIS..........?
filled the car up with Premium unleaded petrol...............?

Answer to come later :D

[janoskiss]

:confuse3: My money's on the brownie points...

[ving]

ditto, spend it one a bit of jewlery :)

[Dennis]

#4 - do you want my bank account details?

Cheers

Dennis

[h0ughy]

naa he just filled the car

[Astroman]

okay to put you out of your misery, it wasnt filling the car or giving it away to charity.

[wraithe]

your a guy into astronomy...this is easy...
you spent it on your wife...in a vain attempt that she may let you off the chain occassionally...lol....NOT

[Gargoyle_Steve]

We know it wasn't spent in filling the car, or given to charity.
(Cheer up Dennis - if you post your bank details here you never know!)

And buying up shares in IIS WOULD be a great thing to do we would all agree, but that hasn't happened.

The title of this thread, and the big cheesy grin, tend to suggest some form of astro gear purchase or layby or something I think.

HOORAY!!!

Would $200 buy/go towards that 3x Seibert Barlow on your shopping list???

[Striker]

I know...

You gave it back to the person you stole it off...ME

You didn't mention that you earned it just received it..????

All a side...spend it wisely and forget about the wife...hehehe

[Astroman]

HAHAHA good guesses everyone, no I actually did give it to my wife to gain brownie points. I told her to go out and buy the baby car seat she wanted to get. The siebert Barlow has already been paid for. And the car only gets fuel once a week and only takes $50 to fill it :) I should have more money coming in later so this frees up that for Astro gear purchases :)

[wraithe]

your wierd astroman...thats not normal for a guy to part with money and let the intellectually advanced gender have the money...hmm i must be going out with the wrong guys...

[Striker]

Very very very dissapointed Andrew.

I think Andrew should receive some kind Forum Penalty for his actions.

If I was you I would change my Forum name.....everyone now is going to know who Astroman is (A Wife money giver).....lol

I hope this is all part of a bigger picture....hahaha

[Kieken]

Well done Astroman, makes me feel less alone. :2thumbs:

Yeah, I'm a moneygiver to, but not directly. I let her choose what she wants and then I pay :).

[jjjnettie]

I must be married to the wrong guy!
The fellas on this forum are real sweet to their wives.

[acropolite]

Ladies (you too Tony), calm down.... you've missed the point, A1 is simply offering a small amount now in return for a larger reward later.... e.g. I give you $500 now and get to spend $2K later....:D Wise investment Andrew :thumbsup:.

[Astroman]

Look into my avatar it holds all the answers :D

[asimov]

Yeah, I made a few 200 buck 'payoffs' to get my C9.25 & 900nc !!


Hee-hee!

[Starkler]

As a single man, the plan is clear..... to buy every conceivable astro want present and future, before considering taking another partner.

He who dies with the most astro gear wins :lol:

[jjjnettie]

Point taken. I thought only girls had twisty minds like that. :P

[ving]

lol jeanette... in this day of metro-sexual, SNAG, nerds its a free for all! we can be twisty and bi.tchy at the same time ;)

some of us are even up for a cat fight every so often :P

[jjjnettie]

I don't think I'd back down from a cat fight with someone wearing socks and sandles. Mreow Hiss Spit.

[JimmyH155]

:rofl: Hey, you guys are paying far too much. I gave my wife a $14 pair of bedroom slippers then went and bought a Lightbridge!:rofl:

[astro_nutt]

Well done astroman!!..I'm the same ..If I come into some spare cash..I let the wife choose first..then daughter one then daughter two..and the rest is mine!!!...which is why I'm STILL trying to save for a UHC filter!!!...AAAAAAAARRRGG!!!

[Astroman]

Well it partly worked, my wife said that $1000 of the money I got from work (extra bonus) can go towards my new mount :)

[astro_nutt]

I want to cry!!!LOL
