that was how i was too.. in many regards, i've since come to respect the fact that i didn't/couldn't get my then dream car, because it wouldn't have lasted very long under the circumstances!

i probably could have paid msrp for a limited with all the money i pissed away during that 12-16 age bracket he said he saved his money... but i had a pseudo company mowing lawns with my brother. these days it seems it's a lot harder for kids to find paid work, as the -18 labor and insurance laws have made it really tough on employers to make it worth the hassle..
