    After being married 44+ years I think I am qualified to suggest that you buy her a washboard and let her keep 1/2 of what she earns. She either will be grateful or she will leave and you're young enough to get a few more.
    Don't pick a fight with an old man. If he's too old
    to fight... he'll just kill you.

    I finally learned to LISTEN. She will tell you what she wants, expects.

    You are a noble and charitable individual, Coot. 50% is plenty generous in my book.

    You're correct. 50% is too much. My pleasant and caring disposition got the best of me. 25% is much more in line with today's economy and I don't want to appear generous and lead the confused young man astray.

    Could advice Coot. I mean you wouldn't want the young man's neighbors to think his wife was taking advantage of him or anything.
