My wife wants to buy a $900 gift for her best friend's birthday!

[Crease1234]

LOL, so what? You're making $50k? $60k?

She isn't getting paid shiit as a resident.

You are going to be making CHUMP CHANGE when your wife is balling out on $400k in a few years.


Quit being a selfish *******. Your wife will leave you soon enough.

So you saying we should spend excessive money now on the expectations that she will be making big bucks in 3-4 years time?

[NotThisShiz]

wtf man.. strong priorities..... oh wait women logic

[aRCaNEbrah]

isnt this all about that other thread where the guy said his wife's friend wants to buy his wife a $900 bag and the husband of the wife's friend was too beta to do anything about it....this guy made a thread pretending to be the beta wife's husband? or is this real life

EDIT: yup i found it

Exactly what I told her.



My wife's not materialistic, but her friend is. It's just that being in a resident program soaks up so much of your time, and my wife didn't have an opportunity to sit down and think what to get for her best friend, and she's desperate and thought of the bag as she knew her friend will like it.

Oh look Bing images has bags for 250$

wow good luck OP
looks like you will be doomed to be one of those high earning, but poor households. it's almost a phenomenon actually

[Linzzz]

No wonder why you guys hate women.

Wife is an illogical, stupid bish. No hate.

wait wut? Are those bags even authentic?

[Lathareo82]

That's some serious woman logic...

That being said, there's some female dynamic to this that we as men simply don't understand. The most I'll get from a friend on my BDay is a "Happy Birthday, dipshiit/fukkstick/*******/etc..." text, and maybe they'll buy me a round or two at the bar. Men are different though. She obviously has thought this all out, I'd let it slide man; pick your battles...

[x800venom]

i am so happy im not dating your girl...u'd think someone who has the drive and smarts to go through med school would have enough common sense to see how stupid this is...actually, whats her number? i could use a few more gh kits in the near future

[Retarted]

wait wut? Are those bags even authentic?

who gives a fuk if they are authentic or not they are EXACTLY the fuking same as the real ones.

srsly thought you can buy a fake one for $20-30 (srs) and your wife won't even be able to tell the difference, just do that.

[JanesLastResort]

lmao strong woman logic.

[clamps121]

Just goes to show you that just because you can regurgitate facts =/= intelligence. That's why ALL of my doctors are male and either white or Indian. Why? Because so many of them apply and they get shafted for the lower applicants so any that do make it though are smart as phuck.

[21Classic]

1. Do it. You can file this away in the "Remember when you spent...." folder.


2. Girls gonna be a Surgeon??? Got damn. Get on her good side and then she'll buy you **** someday.


3. Yeah, just do it. Consider this an investment.



(and just FYI, I disagree with my own suggestion. Your girls a dumb bitch who I hope I never have to face on a surgery table. "If I remove his heart now, I can just replace it later when im done! ")

But you stand to benefit by swallowing your pride now

[YUL]

what kind of surgery does she want to do?

general: you're gonna be poor
specialty: let her buy whatever she wants

She doesn't need to decide yet, she's just year 2 of residency. But she's thinking of doing general because she likes the variety...fuuuuu

doing x-flap resections of the perianal area and removing panniculus from fat people is gonna get boring really fast brah

How big is the avg salary difference between a general and specialty?

[Alternative]

lol at marrying any person who would even considering buying a $900 piece of materialistic leather. Go give the money to a homeless man and help him get a job. Not on a muti million dollar company making stamped cow skin.

[Danger_Close]

lol for one, she is a doctor...a resident is a doctor. for two, i'm betting shes making more than you as a resident, and will make WAY more than you as a surgeon. who are you to tell her what she should spend her money on when SHE'S making it?

This is why marriage is dumb.

love how when its the man making more money its "our money" but when a woman is making more than a man all the sudden its "her money," As if the amount more that she makes more than the man is hers to piss off with. fuk otta here.


also op ur wife is gonna default.

[Crease1234]

I honestly have no idea. $100k-$200k would be my guess. To be reality, for us at least, at a certain point it does not matter much whether she will be making $300k or $400k, it will not affect our lifestyle much.

Actually, with your wife's spending habits, it will very much matter.

[ira_est_a_donum]

OP why not just offer to be the present to her best friend... you naked, in a cake... jump out with a ribbon on and fuk her best friend...

see if you can sell her that one... bc its just as fuking ridiculous....

[Environ]

She is out of her mind. Since he friend is materialistic, she'll get about 2 minutes appreciation of the bag anyway before thinking about the next thing. Tell your wife to have a bit of sense. Somebody else said that, when she's a doctor, she can buy the bag, but I say that it's still insane to buy it. Presumably you guys have a mortgage and other important outgoings that take priority over a stupid bag.

[ne12o]

loled @ future income being used now

[ne12o]

if she's so desperate to gift a 900$ bag, it rather be her sister's wedding

[aplsball90]

dont overthink it like these *******s, just let her. bitches are dumb, its that simple. dont try and understand what shes thinking.

when my ex got a good job, she bought herself a $1400 purse, what a waste. I swear all bitches are the same.

[c0ncept-2]

ITT: OP's gf works her ass off to pamper the fuck out of OP and pays his way through school then bitches cause she wants to spend a 1/20th of what she's spent on him for her best friend.

[raleighwho]

hahahahaha strong aware!

How CEOing are you that a bump in salary of $200-300k doesn't affect your current lifestyle? You on that living above your means time?

Anyway, dumb gift is dumb if you can't afford. Just not sure why she can't afford it. $900 on a purse is stupid but depending on the situation, I'd probably drop $900 on my best friend... like a bachelors party or some ****. Or if he needed the money for something.

Phuck you guys married wrong. I feel sorry for you, seriously.

My wife felt incredibly guilty the other day for buying a $50 crock pot on amazon and promised not to buy any new clothes for close to a year.

Da fuk? $50 is how much a good crock pot costs. Why would she feel guilty about that?

Also, I wanted to buy some file cabinets for $100 but she demanded I save the money because she had a friend that she could convince to give their cabinets to us.

Yours is dumb though because you're getting the same thing for free. Glad you and your wife are being thrifty I guess but that life would suck (her's).
