Helpful Hint No. 217: Only Report the Sales
In Response To: Re: Dow Jones Article re Vintage Watches as an Investment ()

A helpful hint for all the collectors (or even dealers or investors): Be sure to report all sales to your wife, emphasizing the humble profit that you have made from the "investment". A friend who enjoys Las Vegas always buys his wife a nice present with his "winnings" . . . whether he wins or loses in Vegas, this is a small price to pay for the "cover" / support from his wife!
