I guess I am on the luckier side of things. She completely supports my addiction, right up to the door between the garage game room, and the house. Definitely have to watch the budget, so keep it under control by being a LEP (Low End Pinman) with older EM's which are my second love (after her) anyway. I also flip games occasionally to help pay for the hobby. Even keep a spread sheet so can show I am working toward getting to even on the financial out go vs in flow, which helps sometimes when I want to stretch the budget for that "great deal" game.
