Two years ago I built Mrs Rascal a studio, that has resulted in a virtual blank check.

Default Separate credit cards and bank accounts...>

Just siphon it off as you need it. As long as she doesn't drive it and isn't the sensitive type (What did you do to that car!!!) you'll be fine.

If you didn't train her right from the start, this may seem deceptive, but works well.
So do bribes as Dick pointed out, but you have to tip your hand for that technique..

My wife has known me for 49 of my 50 cars and all of the 30 motorcycles....she's a peach, and recognizes (correctly so) that I'm unlikely to change....:-)

Default That has been my problem the last 3 months of ownership...

However, I started with just a few mods, Cold Air Intake, Lowered 1.75...

What has helped greatly is HackThs, when she knows it is installed by a fellow freind and TT owner...She is cool with it.

She also knows that I love the TT and it makes me so happy to upgrade tht TT.

I also don't think it hurts that I bought her a Jaguar to drive! That might have something to do with it.

Good luck brother!
