I have been trying to get past my mistake last week but this completely re-sparked it, 6 reds in a row so I said hey it HAS TO BE BLACK, no more bets, click click click click clickkkkk Red 21! ... Lost a decent amount, not much for you guys but for my age (18), its pretty significant, still had fun and learned!
OP, i don't know what the objective was of this thread so I don't apologize for my gambling thread jack, plus the horses! haha

Easy...my M3 or M5 money is going to my daughter's University. Save up kids. My scraps go to modding $14K on my 135 and $4K on my 335 (so far). Shit...just realized...after 4.5 yrs (thank god she's not on a complete 5 yr plan) it equates to my future 911 Turbo

Now that's what I call working with your hands..
I make commission at work and live with parents while I'm still in college

Cars (and motorcycles) can be an expensive habit -- but probably a cheaper habit than drinking, smoking, drugs or multiple wives/alimony.
Is spending $20,000 on a used BMW a poorer financial decision than spending $200,000 on a college degree in a goofy subject?

I take the SAT for high school students. Depending on the score they want determines the price.

Buy used when you can.
Save up. Have a solid budget for luxuries such as car modifications.

My 335i was given to me from my parents, and they pay for my mods, although I don't always ask for parts! They say they rather pay towards mods then drugs or alcohol I also have a part-time job which all my money is saved up for to buy a condo. I'm still in school though

Not sure if that was sarcastic or not ! It was previously my moms car, she does not need to drive anymore since my dad decides to drive her around in his STi haha! So I get to drive the 335. They do pay for my mods, although it's not like they throw money at me and say "here go buy an exhaust". I had a bike that was useless to me at home.. so I sold it and got my jb4. I had some bent winter rims at home, sold them and got tints. etc etc. I do get little surprises sometimes where my mom ordered me my DCI

Best Mom Ever!!!!
My mom would have been completely clueless about that. Sure, I would get a very nice sweater/whatever for my birthday or Christmas, but not ever something like that. +10 Cool Points to your mom. Edit: Of course, my first car was a '72 Plymouth Valiant. LOL Last edited by srSheepdog; 12-05-2012 at 01:54 PM.. |
