Wasn't there an old, old, Jerry Lee Lewis song, "What Made Bowling Green Famous, Made a Loser Out of Me" ??? -
I love it! Back in 2012 after just completing a big project I decided to get a new Corvette. To my utter surprise my wife told me that I couldn’t. I was shocked. This was the first time in the 13 yrs (at the time) of our marriage that she ever vetoed a purchase. When I recovered from the shock, I told my wife that she was much to fine a woman to be married to a man who’s wife would tell him he couldn’t buy a new Corvette.Originally posted by MikeyTX View PostThe wife threatened to leave me if I bought another Corvette.

The C8 I have put a deposit down on will be the 4th new Corvette I have purchased since that time. My wife and I are still happily married.
This is the Corvette I purchased at the time (pic taken on the day I traded it in on a new 2014 C7). I did make one concession though. I purchased a white one instead of the Torch Red I wanted.

Reminds of an Old joke.
Man comes home home very excited. Sees wife and says. “ hey hunny... pack your bags! I won the lottery! “
Wife very excited says ... “oh my! This is so wonderful! Where are we going? “
Man says... I don’t care where you go... just go! I won the lottery! “ !

lol - unless lottery ticket was purchased after divorce.
. In a 2003 Texas case known as In re Marriage of Joyner, 196 S.W.3d 883 a man purchased a winning lottery ticket following the final hearing of divorce and won $2,080,000. The money was held to be his separate property.
P.s. This is not legal advice lol
Oh-and I don't live in California. But I did stay at a Holliday Inn Express there when I wrote the Cali Bar-true story. I swear

Doesn't matter in my case any way. House and my cars came from funds left to me in a trust by my grandparents before we were married.2022 2LT SGM Adrenaline Red w/Blk Sueded Seating Surfaces and Steering Wheel Spectra Gray Wheels Blue Stripes Current drive: '20 GT350 Heritage Edition Pkg.

Interesting replies! ; )
i don’t think the joke focused on the division of assets as much as the separation of personalities!
