I sure did "sponge" off my wife! After all, she is my wife. We help each other out, support each other, and lean on each other. We both have our own skills and knowledge that we bring to the relationship. In no way is it a fast trip to "penury," as the fact that we can rely on each other makes us that much stronger.
If you want to hide behind the name of a long dead Roman poet, or an egg (not sure about the classical connection there) and use fancy words, go right ahead. I like trains and thought that some of the people on this forum would like to know what the translation is, because yes, my wife does have a degree in Latin. (Which does also come in handy as a Latin teacher)
I don't particularly like you attacking my wife, but being a public forum, you can say whatever you like, but don't expect a reply from me. I'm done wasting my time with you.
