[TenTec] New Radio and the XYL

[Carl Moreschi]

My wife agrees with this analysis up to a point.

You buy a radio for $1189 and give her $1189 to be fair.
Five years later, you sell the radio for $800, so it only cost
you $389.
But she expects HALF of the $800 for her!!

Therefore she ends ups with $1589 to your $400!
