Nothing has any value unless you earn it yourself.

not totally true. my friend henry got a toyota highlander with everyyy upgrade imaginable and it came out to 40k-ish and he has neverrr been in an accident. not only that-- but he alsotakes care of his car more than anyone i know.
most kids who buy their car at 17 cant afford nice cars anyway so they buy ugly cars and ram it into random objects and not car ebecause its ugly in the first place..
so if i were you, id rather be driving near a kid who had their parents buy them a car over a kid who bought himself a car he could care less about
