Well if we are going to talk about wife's, here is my story, back in 1986, the biggest collection in Maine came up, the seller had a store in the late 1970's and he wanted $90K, I didn't have the money, had 15K, I asked my wife if I could take a home equity loan for 75K and she said Yes, (and I paid off the loan in 11 months)---5 years later, I asked her if she minded if I quite my US Postal job to sell baseball cards full time, again she said it was up to me, all my friends said don't do it, but I did---When I stated selling cards in 1978, she would question me as how much I spent on collections but over the years, she doesn't ask anymore and we have been married 48 years---so I think I have a keeper.
