Here in australia we were not effected by the housing market drop like you guys in america are.

You own 3 properties but are living with your parents?!?!? Why dont you want to move out?

Its about priorities. Most people will make living on their own a higher priority than a car. Not to mention, a lot of parents probably wouldnt be too happy with their kid saving up money to blow it on a car instead of moving out and starting their life.

I love my parents and they were always respectful when I lived at home but there is nothing like living on your own. Wasnt too much fun having my girlfriend come over and sleep in the same bed I grew up in with my parents right down the hall...

Kinda sounds like you werent too respectful towards your parents by having GF stay there and having sex. As a parent I dont want my sons GF staying the night. You might end up like the Sara Palin daugther scandel.

I have a nice size home and a large second house in the mountains as I love too board. Looking at a 3rd this weekend but it will be the size of a closet by the ocean (a tiny closet, so small that the sink doubles as the shower)

As far as living with your parents. Good for you guys, nothing wrong with that, I had to move on my own at 16 with nothing but a foot in the rear out the door. I would of done anything to be able to stay at home or should I say have a home to stay in. My kids can live in our home forever if they like (I'll be out Sailing the world anyway at that point

)

No regrets my friend. Everything happens for a reason and every closed door opens another.

Thanks though

PS. I'm not that nice, I just play a nice guy on TV HAHAAHA

Tyrell Tyson · 01-22-2010, 10:03 PM

motoextreme · 01-22-2010, 10:05 PM

I dropped it back off at RAW today. They are trying to knock it out tomorrow afternoon. Fixing that bump on the nose where the fill bubbled for some reason and polishing the tinted taillights. Should be done pretty quick and then I'll get that video, promise!

motoextreme · 01-22-2010, 10:09 PM

PS Tyrell, not to threadjack but we have a bit in common. I was born in Melbourne, AUS. Went back a few times since. Real father lived in Esperance which is South of Perth, went to visit him too (A-hole). He now lives in NZ.

My really good mate (goes by Red) Runs the Suzuki race team in NZ and the back of team for Australia. Guy supported my bike shop back in the day.

Great country, may take the family out there in the next year or two to visit, pretty special place. Have some Fish and Chips for me, maybe even a meat pie with Sauce inside...miss that junk food

We bought our first house six years ago this month. Moving from apt to apt got old. We have a small place (1500 sq. ft.) but it's all we need. Except for the garage that is. A one car garage is not enough. Somehow I have the car, motorcycle, tool bench, freezer, heavy bag and a bunch of other stuff in there. No room to work on the car in there so that happens outside. I would love a bigger garage. Next house will be similar in size but with a three car garage, no make that four car garage

In this economy, here in the Charleston area, you can steal a beach house if you go to one of the smaller community beaches about 30 to 45 minutes away ......... they have that small town beach character feel anyway. (and they are decent sq. footage)

Yeah, we're kind of screwed in CA that way. Just opened a building in NC, guy I sent out there to run it said he can live close to the ocean for cheap. Cold as heck but he's liking it thus far (only been a month)

It will warm up, it has been an unusually cold winter for the deep south, strange weather pattern. Normal high here this time of year is low 60's.
