My wife can recite from memory my credit card number, all 16 numbers plus the validation number on the back (3 numbers)
I am alone here? Or is this a wife thing?

Squid

P.s I am being serious for once and am relatively sober. XD

^ Yikes!!!!!

I put my wife on my American Express account once. That lasted exactly one billing cycle.

Seriously Squid, who cares if she knows the numbers by memory. As long as she isn't blowing out the budget every month, it really isnt a big deal. However, if she is racking up the debt faster than the US Government, then maybe you should close that account.

Mrs. Three can recite my debit and visa card numbers, as well as my driver's license and social security numbers. She also has an acute ability to calculate the exact amount of days she'll spend in depression if she doesn't buy a sale item that's "too good to pass up". She can produce all of these figures at a moment's notice, and use them against me (parole hearing style) if I even utter a cross word about her returning home with that bargained priced diffused nuclear warhead.

It's definitely a wife thing squiddy, and don't bother with the sober thing.....it just brings the pain back.

^ lol!
Well Squiddy, make sure she also remembers the little numbers on your paycheck. With luck, she may establish a co-relation between the paycheck amount and the credit card limit.

You're wife is not alone, Squid. I can recite your credit card number, too (she uses it for our hotel rooms).

:)

I have discovered the solution to this problem by periodically calling in and reporting my credit card as lost. (especially after Mrs V has just has just memorized the number). I then get a new card with a brand new number.

As for Mrs.Three memorizing the SSN and all the other numbers, all I can suggest is on the next wife be sure to give her and IQ test. A score slightly above G. W. Bush is an acceptable level.

Dam ,, I better take a better look down below my waist. I know my social security, savings account, checking account, sons savings account, my drivers license number (each 10 digits) and about 20 of my closest friends phone numbers without having to look, yet I never know what day of the month it is. %)

^ lol good point! I still remember my first credit card number! (it's been closed 5 years ago!) And SOOO many useful numbers! PINs, IDs/PWs, etc.
I make a textedit file with all the numbers I use (online/offline), always useful when you lose something or want to log-in in a place you haven't logged in a while.

Hmm rumors are indeed true....LOL XD

@Squid,
No need to worry. Marriage can be a little rough somethimes.
Just let me give you one piece of advise for your marriage with Mrs Squid: " All your ups and downs should be in-between the sheets!" %)

LOL to all. XD You crack me 44!

No probs with marriage or with her spending, apart from the odd eBay purchase I dont understand.
Whats is mine is hers.
Its just her skill with remembering numbers I found odd. However it seems I am just no good at it compared to Hugo !

Must be the beer,

Stay safe friends - cheers and beerz

Squid

Squid: at least you still remember your way to the beer store!

Oh come on. This is beautiful!

Three solutions for Squid:

1.- Eliminates your credit card
2.- Eliminates your wife
3.- Eliminates both

And later, you can use her as a nice table, is not it a creative idea?

Lol

It's not a wife thing we just use the credit cards more than you guys your S.S. D.L. If we are in charge of the bills (which most are) than we use those numbers quite a bit... When I was paying the bills or had a question on our bills I always had to have S.S. Or some kind of I.D. That was his
My soon to be x only knows my birth date.....lol :P
