I respect your opinion, be sure to respect mine by actualy READING the post that you attempt to dissmis.

I quote "Obviously its your situation and i dont know all the details"

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."

Drop the attitude dude, people are offering advice and condolences...just like you?

I'm sure you've said something along the lines that consumers need to be more responsible and live by their means in the past too. It's something everyone needs to do anyways.

As for the OP...uhm, I guess you want advice but the most I can say now is to tell you to do whatever you want? Nonetheless, I hope your situation gets better!

that's definitely the only way i'm making it right now. the only job i've had since may only paid 1450 for the summer. God is the reason i'm still above water right now, and that's why i'll be waiting some time to get my camaro. as for your dad, he & the rest of our troops will be in my prayers. i'm actually considering joining the air force soon, depending on how some things play out. just keep the faith that God will see us all through these times.

Im sorry to hear this happening to you. I bet many people are going thiught the same track, Get setteled with financial issues as fast as possible then aim for the camaro, don't worry about the camaro just yet you got more important stuff to take care of, the camaro can wait the monthly bills can't wait that long.

Bumble Bee '77, I completely understand what uncertainty you are feeling right now. I'm in the same boat. I had been saving money for after college since I was 13. $6k disappeared to cover family finances, and they barely made a dent. Now, I'm coming out of college with confidence but no job, a degree outside of my work experience, and a town with few options that will pay even my basic needs. I don't know how it feels to have someone serving abroad, but it can't make your struggle any easier. I truly wish you the best. If you want to stay in touch, hit me up on AIM. No one should have to go through this uncertainty alone.
