Getting hitched....

[Ridin'GMC]

So I'm getting married in 7 months. I proposed to her last December and it's going by too fast, faster than I thought it would be. Most of the time I had the urge to save up and spend on something for my truck but..... gotta save for the wedding and honeymoon.

It's driving me nuts, I feel like I want to get something for my truck like a built tranny or something! It's been over a year since I bought something for the truck.

Felt like I had to say it......

It happens to the best of us man. Just think though now you will have 2 incomes to spend on the truck

IDk about 2 incomes. She pretty much pays the utilities while I pay the big stuff..... It will be when she graduates and find a good job as a General Heathcare Administration. It's pretty hard to find a good paying job when you're deaf which she is and I am too.

:spit: Lol!! My wifes a school teacher, She carries her weight but she also spends all her money,,, and a good chunk of mine on the regular The only way I get toy money is to make sure the essentials are taking care of first and then buy & sell cars, trucks, equipment, hustle up additional work as well as side work, and as of most recently buying properties on the cheap, re-habing them and renting them out.. That pays for the toys, but believe me its never enough The more you make, the more you will spend, FACT!! Congrats on the engagement man:thumb: I know Without mine I would have spent all my money way before I could have invested any of it, Balance is a good thing. Best of luck to you both :hug:

Thanks. From what you say, its pretty much the same with my fiance. She carries her own weight and I do spend a chunk on her too. I make sure everything is paid first before having fun or toys such as our quads and recently had to get her a new car. She wanted a truck like mine but couldnt afford it and she drives alot so got her an 09 Malibu LTZ with a 4 banger to save some fuel. Someday she'll have her own dmax whenever they come out with one in a SUV. I work 60+ hours a week so its never ending.

I built my BURB up during the hitchin process. Decided to get hitched in January, had the wedding in May. I started on the bURB in Febuary, and got it completed in August. The month before the wedding I got it all laid out, and the month after the wedding my new wife didn't see me for more than 30 minutes a day. It worked out great actually IMO, but she might have seen it differently. I told her since I was out of work at the time and had the money, the bURB was getting done wether we were getting hitched or not.
