This is pretty funny and probably true for most of us

Funny thing (kind of)

My preamp/amp are from dead audiophiles 1st owners

Funny and true. Two nights ago my wife asked me at dinner "what am I going to do with all your stereo stuff when you die?"

I promised I'd put price tags on everything the next time I get a cold.
I have 2 kids and they are NOT interested. iPhones! Yech.

You mean we can't take it with us?!?!

I love posts like this.  What a hoot. 

If you can't come clean with how much your system really costs, (and lots of us can't really divulge that information), write a note, seal the envelope and tell your wife - upon my death, please open this envelope.  That way if she ever sells, she won't get ripped off.....

Funny, when I was married, I had to sneak my new gear into the house and set it up in the man cave when she wasn't around.  Once it was in my system, she never seemed to notice what had changed.  Now, my new girlfriend likes my hobby and is happy when I get new gear.  What a gal!
