Or he could do what I did and work for one.

Those stories don't do anything for me...

It isn't hard to realize that school + good grades + continue to more school + student loans + more school = career

My wife is the perfect example.

Ok, a ZL1? I get he is a great kid, but how about be a little humble and ask for a little cheaper Camaro and I would never give my Son or Daughter a ZL1 until they were older, I would want them alive to be able to enjoy it.

Agreed. Asking for 25k sounds a lot better then 63k. At least he has good taste

Why am I still having trouble with the fact that people ask for handouts on these sites, even if he is a great kid? There are thousands of great people out there that don't get free stuff.

My apologies for being cynical, maybe it's because I just got home from work. Again. Like every day before that.

If I had to guess, taxes are already going to put food on the table at their place.

Stories don't do anything for me either. My son did what any good son would do, buy him a ZL1 for me... Get him a 1LS, if he's as great as she says he'll love that car just as much.

I didn't like that story where some lady who got bullied by little kids got over half a mil on that or some other similar website. Think she got somewhere between 600k and 900k just because of a video of her getting bullied by immature children...

I'm not asking for anything? I found this article and thought I would share it because he wanted the zl1...

No not you, buddy. "These sites" refers to sites like gofundme and others like it.

My apologies for not being clear.

Ya, what's wrong with working for your dreams? Everyone wants something for nothing these days. I'm kinda of tired of paying for everyone else.
