My first marriage I brought with me my aquarium, dive gear and clothes. When I got divorced I took with me my aquarium, dive gear and clothes.
My wife now, knew she had me hooked when I brought over my aquarium to her apartment. I've had that same aquarium for 36 years. That's longer than both of my marriages put together.
As far as money, I'm still broke, but that's ok as long as I can afford enough electricity to keep my tank running.
