Default OT - toy and fun money

All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy.

So, the bills got to be paid. The church tithes and offerings. The
electric, rent, etc. But, that gets boring in a hurry. How much to
spend on fun? Does anyone have a formula? Percentage, or what?


Two words "Separate accounts"
My wife makes her money and keeps it in her own accounts.
Same for me.
Common expenses are covered by a household account that we both deposit
to equally.

I buy guns, cars, machine tools.
She buys a new car regularly and cat stuff. She has more left over and
no storage issues (except for cat poop). hmmmm
