I don't know how this is a friend of 19 years. Money makes more money and nobody ever got rich by spending money on things they don't need. Nobody should ever pick at you for being responsible. You know how much crap I get at work for driving around the 3000gt all winter? Especially when someone new rides in it. They're like "holy **** why don't you buy a new car?", and I say cause a car is a money sink. I'm putting the money into my house which makes me happy too AND will give me most of the cash back some day when I sell it.

Usually I dont see anything in return, not that I expect it in the least, but it's a courtesy thing. So, with that said, I've been a little less generous in some aspects :-p

Well that was fine when we were all 16. We're all adults now. People should pay their way like big boys. I had to dump a friend because of that. It's too bad I let him get $4000 in the hole with me first. I'm pretty strict about that now. Some of you guys are at the age where you'll start doing business with friends... Buying a house together, going in on a race car together, starting a business togehter, etc. That ****'s tough because someone could be your best friend now but if you roll your eyes at them wrong they'll change overnight and try to steal the whole thing from you. Hell one guy who frequents this thread could tell you a lot about "friends" screwing you. |
