Wife Acceptance Factor

I hear alot about Wife Acceptance Factor when it comes to equipment. I'm getting married in 6 months. Fortunately, my fiance is pretty accepting of the hobby. Just curious about all those guys out there who have a family and are still allowed to invest their spending money almost entirely on audio equipment. After you get married, do most women step in and try to squash spending on this hobby? Opinions welcome!!!

I have two things which come into play:
1)Include her in your purchases; ask her opinion about how things sound (try not to ask about how they look), audio should be enjoyment for both of you.
2)Audio purchases are (for me) a trade-off. If she approves of a purchase for you, don't object if she asks you about some purchase she's considering.
One last thing: "Hi honey, look what I just bought (without talking to you about it first)is NOT a good way to start a conversation.
