It's the things that my mind doesn't see that my non numbers person wife helps me with. Like how it's possible to spend large amounts of money while actually SAVING me money. Like why exercise resulting in any sweat IS NEVER good for you. Like why shopping in NYC is much better than any local store. Like why driving a Mercedes is best regardless of what Consumers Reports says. Like why colors other than white are preferable for many things. I could go on.
