If you could turn one person on to SLing, who would it be?

[Ultralight]

A close relative. He at one time worked with the less fortunate. That was his life goal. He always was of service to others until he reached his 50's and married a certain person. He didn't realize her values were different than his and each year that went by he slowly started accomodating her I think to probably just do away with the nagging. Its like he gave up. She has to have the latest furnishings, the best vehicles, the best wardrobe, the best of everything. Then she has to show everyone the pictures of her latest purchases. She has a blind spot when you talk about the homeless or others who aren't affluent like her. Its like she just doesn't get it that there are hurting people out there. It hurts our heart to see him have to settle like he has. He has stood up to her before and lets just say that didn't go over very well. He takes his marriage very seriously and feels responsible so he will never leave her. But again, that is his choice. You have to weigh what is more important to you. Just be very very careful on who you select for a lifetime mate.

This sounds like a sad situation. :/

My husband. He spends a lot on musical instruments, recording gear, and he isn't willing to downsize yet.

What do you suppose are his reasons for not wanting to downsize and for spending so much on instruments and recording gear?
