just because someone buys expensive things for their kids doesn't mean that their kid is spoiled. spoiled means one has no appreciation for the value of things and just expect them to be given to them. While i don't think that nolan's parents should have gotten him the car as a means of teaching him a life lesson of how to work hard for things, based on what he has posted, he does not sound like he has been spoiled.

spoiled is like ruined. you have NO appreciation. You just EXPECT, and when you dont get what you want, regardless of what it is, it is not acceptable. he sounds like he appreciates what he has and is not spoiled. do i think he should have payed at least half of the car? Yes. but do i think he is spoiled because is parents bought him a car? no.

and our car isn't really that outrageously expensive. i see kids driving fully loaded altimas and accords around, and those cost just as much, they just don't have good taste.

there are a lot of parents out there that are, for some reason, inclined to buy their kids nice cars. However, they usually wind up buying them some safe boring *** car for a lot of money that has "My parents picked this out" written all over it. I think its cool that his parents at least got him what he wanted instead of arbitrarily buying him some boring family sedan.

The fact of the matter is, anyone here, who wasn't abandoned by their parents at the age of six, owe their parents for helping them to be where they are. Whether they bought you a nice car and everything you want, or put food on the table and gave you a place to sleep. To anyone here who was raised by wolves, and then entered society and became successful entirely on their own, i commend you. If you weren't, just accept that different parents do different things.

You have to have tough skin around here, about half of the people on this forum already have a opinion in their heads so no matter what you post it does not really matter.

I know a bunch of germans but they all use the regular toilet, not a pit. So it looks like im out of luck

They use normal regular toilets in Germany. I think his comment was more along the lines of a german broad would pretend that your chest is a pit and poop on you, like many scenes in kinky german pornos.

I was pretty nervous that I'd be the only one under 50, and I'd be surrounded by a group of old guys with fanny packs and leather driving gloves.

You know what's crazy?!
I met this kid at a local dunkin donuts and he has a G37x fully loaded.
He's a senior in high school...
O_o;;

Pretty much what Jeffblue said.

Anyway, I laugh at those who think that the youngins who own good and fast cars are immediately labeled spoiled. Really? Ever stop for a min and think maybe they would pay their parents later?


All these college students owning 370Z do nothing to me. I know here in my uni, there are students who drive around Nissan GTRs and Lambos.
As long as the students don't regret their choice of cars and that his/her parents are happy that their kids are enjoying life while doing excellent in school then it is good.
