all most like pay check to pay check -- but i buy the big stuff with my CC -- but save as much as possibly from every paycheck to send to my CC to pay it off -- or pay it off faster --- i never send the minium --

Same thing here. The only reason why I couldn't use it this time was cuz I bought a washer/Dryer set for my Brother. It was his Wedding Present. I had to save to buy my header last Tuesday. Next will be 4 Wheel disc Coversion Using 4 lug.

Single with 2 jobs - 74k a year is nice.

Sleep would be nice too - but I can't afford that.
and u drive a fukking protege?(screwy)

I really hope yur putting away money for a house or sumthin...we need some kind of reasonable excuse if yur gonna disclose the fact that u make that much and drive a mostly stock ES... :D
 
well, paychecks have been by and large paying bills only...mods have come from virtually all my savings...and now that I have my insurance bill paid off, some of my checks...
I got a new job, so hopefully the tips(gonna be a server) will be helping the modding while the checks($2.38/hr) pay the bills, I hope :D

maybe some sponsors in a few months, but im glad to say I have no CCs...for now(laugh)

You give interest free loan to uncle sam every year.

It would make a wiser investment decision to put that money in a savings/money market/cd account and pay taxes at the end of the year...


I agree with ya there! I work from home and I get the lovely benefit of having alot of money right now and I invest alot and I'll pay my taxes in April. I'm not gonna give Uncle Sam (usa) anymore help then he already gets from the Millions of taxpayers that are clueless!!!
 
Ok, so far 7 people have chosen "Rich" on the poll. We need to find these people and jump them for their wealth so as we can all have hot cars. Yeah! :p
 
they're 16, work as a dishwasher at a local restaurant and their parents bought them the car...they thought it was cute to put "rich" (lol2) hehe, j/k
 
no one on this board is rich. their parents may be rich, but your parents being rich doesnt make you s*** except spoiled
 
I think it means more if you gotta buy it with your hard earned money..
 
car parts aren't worth robbing a bank for... now a new pair of shoes... that is a different story.. lol.. :D
 
Good luck here. I bartend now, but when I was waiting tables, the checks were absolutely horrid. Your $2.38/hr just goes to pay the taxes on the tips that you make. You'll be lucky to see a $50 paycheck out of a 40hour workweek.

haha, pay taxes on my tips...they dont know how much tips I make(evil)

but yeah, i guess you're right, that hourly pay aint s***:(
 
It's always fun to pull up to some 16 yr old wearing an upside-down visor and a kobe bryant jersey in a cobra/firebird/camaro and yell out "Hey, what are your dad's payments on that?" Sure, I don't think they understand the humor at that age, but when they grow up, they'll shake their fist at the man who pulled up in a protege that day and stepped on their borrowed manhood. --- Also fun if you can burn them in the race it can so quickly ignite from the confrontation.... but then again you should NEVER race on public streets... EVER..... (poke)

Uncle Sam pays for my mods hehe:)

And no I'm not on welfare I'm in the military. They pay for my mods and my college, and all I had to do was spend about a year in the gulf. Good trade off for me.
