Just a lot of fun at the drag strip.

Is your house paid off? Any equity?

Most people that age don't realize the consequences of certain actions until it's too late. Obviously there are exceptions as you seem to be but you can't fault people for thinking young kids make stupid decisions some times.

I grew up around people racing cars so I've been taught the consequences that come with that. And yeah that's true about people my age not being able to afford these kind of cars. Anyone else I know my age are driving older cars

I rent (financially bad decision I know), 0 credit card balance, higher credit score than most people.

Sorry if my typing isn't the best. Just got my wisdom teeth pulled and the pain killers are making me wonky.

i disagree. owning a house comes with overhead (more on older houses). then again there are a bunch of factors which can determine if it's worthwhile to rent or own.

not to mention you're very young so your credit score isn't going to be as strong as someone like mr.ken so the banks probably won't give you a mortgage.

again you're proving that you're an exception to the general consensus that young kids be trying to be kewlz.

Especially with property taxes being so damn high in NJ. There has been a few articles I've seen lately stating it's more financially sound to rent than buy in this state. Go figure.

Thumps up man. I am 23, rent my own place, pay my own bills, insurance, been on my own since 19. Wanted to buy a house first but Los Angeles home prices are ridiculous. Low credit debt. Kudos and I've done plenty of research on owning a property also.

I like how you ASSume he lives at home to be able to buy a Z. I bought my first house and a new car at 20, sure the house would fit in the garage of my current house, but still. Young doesn't always mean freeloader.

Birdfan67 · 07-17-2015, 03:42 PM
