One day it will happen.  Much like the day my wife was helping me carry out all the gear from the back side of where they could have filmed Survivor.  I had everything else.  She had only the gun in the box.  She slipped at the top of a very muddy creek bank and slid to the very bottom.  She swears that all I did was yell out, "Protect the gun!  Protect the gun!"

That same day she was backed into a cedar tree as far as she could get bent over when she thought she heard a chain saw running in the distance.  After I got the shot we needed, she looked to her left through a chainlink fence to see a caged bobcat looking back at her from no more than three feet away from her face.  That low warning sound was the chainsaw she thought she was hearing.

My wife would fire me first chance she got.  She's yin and I'm yang in our marriage and that's why we we've been together 21 years and married almost 16.

Could you work with your spouse?

Yes, but some heated arguments come tax time. She did the books, I did the rest, and would try to claim anything as a tax deduction. Didn't work, she went straight by the rules. But you know men.

In business for 32 years and married for 54 years. Met in High School.  Sold business and retired 3 years ago at 70. Still own office building and rent to the new owner.

After 25 years of marrige I suspect you already know the answer to your question.

We have been married for 39 years, there is no way I could work with her, either the Homicide Detectives would be interviewing her or they would be interviewing me, she is way too bossy as it is.

Huge advantage in being married to my best friend who also runs the Treasurer end of our business. I earn the money and she handles it. And i don't have to worry about anyone siphoning off the funds.
