im 22 and work 45 hours a week. i dont get paid enogh for what i do, but thats a rant for another day.
i live at home still, but since i was 16, ive had to pay for everything, i had to pay back my parents for my Dynasty, have always paid for my insurance, and any mods. Now i have a full time job, it helps, but my bills have increased accordingly.. sadly.
i make mods like a bill
so its:
200/mo for "rent to my parents
456/mo for auto insurance
389/mo for my cruiser payment
42/mo for cell phone
75/ for student loan
i pay my credit card off when i get it, but i dont use it that much, was $80 last month.
I borrowed some cash from my bro to pay for the body shop, and thats another 100/mo
and then its usually about 200-300/mo i spend on my car, if it be mirrors, or spoilers, or gauges, or whatever.
i pretty much break even everymonth with my $$.. and im to a point now, where i would like to start saving for a place to live, but i know as soon as the CRX is done, that will be helpful, and when 2005 hits, and the cruiser is paid off, and when all my stuff is off my insurance record, i will have a lot of money on my side.. but for now.. i just make due, i push to the limit, and go from there.. cause cars are what i love.. so i make it work in my equation
*whew*.. sorry for the long post
