Advice to Hams and SWL's from Igor
 

There's a LESSON here you hams and radio freaks.
What happened to this baseball collector can happen to a
radio collector also....and I know SEVERAL xyl's who'd
just LOVE an opportunity to trash or sell off all of her
hubby's "ham radio junk" just to have him pay her more attention..... ; )

Ex-Wife Auctions Man's $200,000 Baseball Collection
From the News Section of: http://www.voyeurweb.com/main/Main.html

TUSCON, Arizona -- A woman whose husband spent $200,000
on baseball memorabilia took revenge - by divorcing him and selling
it on eBay.

The husband, 42, told his wife, 45, they couldn't
afford kids or a house, and even took money from
her bank account to add (baseball items) to his collection.

The divorce judge ruled she can have the rare baseball
cards and caps, and she is auctioning them online,
according to news media reports.

The couple had been married for 17 years.
When asked about the auction, the wife
said: "I'm giggling."

-- Holy Strike Out, Voyeurwebbers! It sounds like this guy got
caught looking at an inside fastball and never even swung at
it, hehehe! Meanwhile, his wife managed to knock one out
of the ball park. It wasn't just a grand slam, either, it was a
200-grand slam, hehehe! There's also an important lesson
in this story, Voyeurwebbers: ***If you're hobby becomes
your life ... it's definitely time to get a new hobby***. -- Igor

Indeed -- your wife or your rig (baseball cards)

Yeah, I'm single and that's one of the many reasons why. Marriage is for
suckers IMHO. It used to mean somethng many, many years ago but womens
mind set have changed to much it isn't worth it now. I've seen FAR too
many marriages go down the toilet for my money.

A guy walks into a bar, sits down. Tells the batrender "A round of
drinks on me!"

After getting hs drink, the fellow next to him asks "What's the
occasion Pal?"

"I'm getting married tomorrow! Now I'll be able to get laid any time I
want!!"

The other fellow says "Funny, but that was the reason I got divorced!"

My wife never had to work for my hobby. Before we married we
discussed it. I had been a ham for years before we met. I told her
that I was an Amateur Radio Operator for years before we met and I
would be one long after she's gone. If she couldn't accept that, she
would have to move on. Likewise, I never tried to discourage or
change things about my wife. Those things a person likes and
dislikes, or their hobbies, etc, are part of what makes them the
persons they are. I believe that if we take those things from a
person, there will be a hole in their life and they will no longer be
the person we met and fell in love with. Of course, it is different
if that person changes hobbies, etc. on their own, but it is not good
to take it from them.

To include in their budget, support for each other's hobbies is not a
bad thing, but to break their budget over any one hobby is not a good
thing. My wife never went hungry because I bought a radio.

I'm glad I'm one of the many exceptions to your rule... With your broad-
brush view-point, I would recommend that you avoid marriage entirely
because you're already stacking the deck against yourself.

You are certainly an exception and up to about 20 years ago marriages
usually worked. But you folks know as well as I do how many **** the bed
in the past 20 years. You all know PLENTY of them.

I hope it lasts 20 more.

Thanks. I understand your attitude. Don't give up though. It really is cool

Am I the only one that noticed that the post said that he took money out
of -her- bank account?

"The husband, 42, told his wife, 45, they couldn't
afford kids or a house, and even took money from
her bank account to add (baseball items) to his collection."

Perhaps the only poster to date who noticed it - when I saw that I
figured he opened himself up to what he got.

I kind of figured the judge did too. ;)

1. I'm 26, a radio nut, and single.
2. I do have female friends who 'spin out' out my hobby.
3. I don't watch TV or listen to domestic radio
4. I agree with the majority of posts that say one accepts thier wife/gf's
hobby and they accept yours
5. If this guy lost all his baseball (perhaps he should play cricket) stuff
and it came to this he never really had a true relationship with his wife.
6. It's a sad world today, where most guys my age in VK, make sure they have
assets listed with lawyers in thier own right before they ever move in with
a girl, hence the reason that all-without exception-my mates still live at
home with thier parents.
7. He obviously never read the Amateur's Code "never place hobby above work,
family and other commitments"

How the hell else are you going to last a long time with someone if they
are not your friend. Besides being friends the only other thing required
is that you both share the expectations of the marriage like kids, money
and who does what.

person, there will be a hole in their life and they will no longer be
the person we met and fell in love with. Of course, it is different
if that person changes hobbies, etc. on their own, but it is not good
to take it from them.

To include in their budget, support for each other's hobbies is not a
bad thing, but to break their budget over any one hobby is not a good
thing. My wife never went hungry because I bought a radio.

Very wise words, from someone who understands human interaction. Too
often one person or the other in a couple thinks they can "reform" the
other person's bad habits. This only leads to misery and an eventual
breakup. When you sign up to the "for better or worse" deal, that
means you take the whole package, not just the parts you like. My wife
had to deal with my radios, and I had to deal with her smoking (Which
fortunately she gave up when she was pregnant). That's is the nature
of compromise. You compromise because underneath those surface
differences, there is a greater bond of affection which should
transcend those surface differences. But it should be everything in
moderation. If important things in life are being postponed to address
a specific hobby, then it's time for a little introspection.

My wife never had to work for my hobby. Before we married we
discussed it. I had been a ham for years before we met. I told her
that I was an Amateur Radio Operator for years before we met and I
would be one long after she's gone. If she couldn't accept that, she
would have to move on. Likewise, I never tried to discourage or
change things about my wife. Those things a person likes and
dislikes, or their hobbies, etc, are part of what makes them the
persons they are. I believe that if we take those things from a
person, there will be a hole in their life and they will no longer be
the person we met and fell in love with. Of course, it is different
if that person changes hobbies, etc. on their own, but it is not good
to take it from them.

Yeah...I think I've butted heads with this butt head before. sigh




I don't think he has a head. Kind of like that chicken that lived after

Your wife gave me head all night. That bitch can suck a golf ball through
