George you are to be congratulated for knowing what is the right thing to do. Some people don't put limits on themselves and end up with huge credit card debt or get into other kinds of problems. For a man to put limits on himself is the adult thing to do, the wise thing to do. For that is the responsible thing to do. If you are a married man, sometimes it comes down to another fly fishing toy or something for Momma. The prudent fellow better share in who gets the toys for a long term marriage. Balance isnt' something to complain about, it is something to feel good about since you know that is the right thing to do. Thanks for sharing what is a tough thing to say or admit on a public forum.
