question for married guys as a younger guy, how do explain the cash withdrawals if you have a shared account?
i stick to strip clubs for the ocassional bit o fun.
Just 'for titilation'.
Pardon the pun.
I am 90% of the time a no menu seeker kinda punter.
I fund this from side hustles.
I worked near an auto assemlby plant for a while.
So go for a walk at lunch after parking on an approach to the place.
And end up with a couple of very full gorcery shopping bags filled with crushed beer cans from a .75 of an hour walk.
That translates to $12-15 a day of beer store returns.
Spot the dumped goods that are redeemable for cash at the scrap yard, from noon walks.
Stop and pick them up on the drive home.
Brake drums, batteries, etc.
Keep an eye on the e-waste bin if you work in a big office block.
Salvaged power cords pay well at the scrap yard.
Keep an eye on any facility battery gathering or light fixture bins.
SLA batteries are $1-1.5 each, and ballasts 1 buck and wire to the ends of old 4' fixtures is worth about the same.
Ask the IT department if you can help clear out their old computer pile.
They keep the cpus and monitors.
You just wan the power and monitor cables.
One day I asked ,and they had given up lease space and had reams of cat 5 filling their storage closet that once was tied to racks of switches.
They were happy I took it away.
They had their space back Thursday after work
And Saturday morning by 8am I made $450 off it at the scrap yard.
Wander by dumpsters of plumber/hvac places on weekend mornings early if not during the week.
To find cast iron, plumbing fixture rich in brass.
Keep your eyes open and cruise the curbs on no limit garbage days in your own and adjacent neighbourhoods.
The above tended to spin at least 2-3K a year on average year in year out.
Not enough for a full blown weekely orgy, but enough to scratch the 'see the peelers itch' from time to time.
Like maybe once a month when dear wife is off to a book club meeting, or off to see a play that I was not interested in.
