My favorite toy that keeps me warm and dry, my 3500 sq/ft home with 5 acre pond and huge front and back yard, I built and paid for my self.

My daughter (9 months old now) on the other hand will be just like this kid if I manage my money right. She will have very nice things. I will teach her the value of a $ though which I hope this kids parents are teaching him.

I am starting her college fund in Jan. so she will be guarenteed an opportunity for a good education. If she earns scholorships and such she will have a big check waiting upon her college graduation to do with as she wishes.

BTW: Nice toys and hope you become a outstanding citizen and bless those who have blessed you when they need it.

Prob. not till you are 25. Try looking into taking a safe drivers course. Many insurance companies give breaks for these things and they are typically only one evening maybe two.

You could prob buy a P.O.S. 4 banger 80's sedan or something and carry only liability on it in your name, then run the Cady on your parents policy listing them as drivers and end up with money in your pocket and a grunge mobile.

There you go, get the lower rate and save.

I have a 2500 4x4 lifted with 34's and was spending about $60 in gas a week. I invested $3000 in a 96 Doge Neon and now I am saving $1500 a year in gas. I have had it 2 years now so I now have $1500 in my pocket each year. Also the value of my 2500 is not dropping as fast because I am keeping the miles off of it.

I only put like 3-4k miles on the 2500 last year. I have put almost 50k on the neon in 2 years.

Just my comute to work each day is 70 miles. That is 350 miles a week, not to mention the burst into town and back for super and crap (12 mile min) and then the weekend driving. It is the 6.0L Vortec and has to have high test or it spark knocks like he!!. The gas milage is also reduced due the 34's I have put on.

Stock it gets mid teens in gas mileage and as you put bigger tires on the mileage goes down.

The Neon runs on low test and has a small 2.0L 4 banger.

Cause there is no way in hell YOU bought all that. Let alone a quad or a snowmobile. And exactly your PARENTS own the company.

A loan on the caddy? How long do u think it will take you to pay that off? I mean maybe you&39;re not the little kid you look like, I don&39;t know.

I agree, give him a break. He doesn't seem do be one of those guys that goes "ur just jealous because you only have a slow 400ex loser" or something like that. As long as you don't take what you got for granted and appreciate it, I ain't got a problem with ya.

Man, you guys are harsh. So he's a young guy with some toys. Big deal. If takes care of his stuff, more power to him. No matter who you are, there will always be someone with more. That's just life. And this is coming from someone who drives an 11 year old VW and a 20 year old three wheeler.
