Meh, just more drama. Porn is free, and you turn it off when you're done.

I myself just put off the whole dating/relationship game and wanted to become financially stable before trying to find someone. I finally got a house and my 370z and am finally in a good position but now I find myself making every little excuse to not date... I need to try to find someone before I run out of time, LOL.

As for the car thing I think a beater might be a good idea but reliability can always be a problem.

Before my 370z I leased a non-turbo Subaru Impreza (2006) for around $200/month. It was severely lacking in power compared to the 370Z but it actually handles very well for a 15-16k car.

I ended up just buying it at the end of the lease and my dad bought half of it and its kind of both of our 'spare' car and it is stored in his garage. Its not a bad car. When my dad's 350z had engine failure he was using my subaru and was pretty happy with its performance (it has decent power and handles well). Its no comparison to the Versa that my sister drives.

To paraphrase " The Who" I hope I die before I grow up. Dude , I'm 54 and having the time of my life, don't worry about the number.My Z helps me to remember that " ...believe it or not, there's life after high school-Hall and Oates-:stirthepot:

Why does everyone seem to think if you don't have an SO, you are automatically lonely? Hell, I bought a cat for those times at 3am when I am bored and noone is awake. I continue to post on this forum even though I bought a 'vette. It's entertaining and lot of cool members here (even the guy with a mustang : P ).

I have friends and LOTS of work to fill my time, lonely is more of a politically correct way of saying what i really want to say lol

LOL... I was like that for a long time too...

Ha!
Whippersnappers thinking their life will be over when they hit 30. I laugh only because I was there, too. I actually thought I'd be dead by the time I was 40!
Truth be told, I got married at 30, my wife and I traveled and partied our asses off like some kind of Wild on E!/MTV Spring Break/Lake Havasu party that lasted for 10 years. It was great to have a partner for the journey and a much bigger budget than I would have had in my 20's.
I party slightly less hard only because my career has taken a new direction and now when I get on a plane, it's for work. To compensate for that, we've turned our home into a party pad and our friends come to us.
We skipped the whole kids thing. Honest self-evaluation determined that we are the kids in this family.

Don't wish your life away. You can't get the time back.
A plan is good to have... to a point. Just be prepared for life to happen and be ready to change course when it happens!

Not worrying about numbers, but at 54, money will be no object if things go as planned.

Of mice and men of course, but the last decade played out to the letter for me. What's wrong with dreaming that the next 3 will? :tiphat:

My problem is work. I only work 3-4 days a week, and if I picked up OT, it would bump me into the next tax bracket just BARELY unless I picked up a TON of OT to get into the meat of that bracket. Basically, I can work what I work now, or work a little more and make nothing for it, or work 6 days a week and make a bit more.

I'll just be bored at times, lol.

Tax brackets don't work that way. You're not going to lose out because you go into the next bracket by $1000, only the portion that falls into that bracket gets taxed at the higher rate.

Let's say you earned $35000, the first $34000 would be taxed at 15%, the last $1000 would be taxed at 25%. Sure, you getting 10% less out of the extra work that puts you over but it's not like your ever going to lose money by working more.
