Anmeeks-we do seem to have similar situations but at the same time you don't fully understand mine. The money I get for cycling comes from selling cycle gear or equipment that I don't want or need anymore. Xmas, bday money that save up. She does the same for herself. Like you said we aren't rich by any means but we also don't need to pull money from our personal saved sock drawer stash to pay out bills or get food. We are "comfortable" because we live within our means with our income. If we started to pay for my cycling, my wife's wants and hobbies, we would be pushing that comfort. This is why I pay for it with my saved money. Trust me, its not a selfish thing, its more the opposite.
