I was on your side until you made that last remark. Now go to sleep knowing that mommy and daddy will be there to buy you what you want you spoiled brat. None of those cars belong to any of you, thus that person making 20$ an hour is doing better in life than you are.Also you think nitrous and radials will make you win against a Z06, then you are dilusional.

Op, your last few comments underscore the problems that arise when successful parents give lavishly without teaching them the cost of working for it. If you truly understood how hard most people work to afford even a Camaro, you would understand why your post draw fire.

I know a few wealthy people up here that you would look at and think they don't have two cents to their name based upon appearance (when they are in fact millionaires). One even makes his children work, and I mean these are high school age kids working at McDonald's. He wants them to understand the value of working for their own dollar so they understand hard work.

You will not gain many supporters here with your sliver spoon up your ___ statements.

Lots of people have a nice living on that wage, and work very hard to get it. Everyone does not base their value in life off of what their paycheck has on it and owning $100k+ cars. I don't feel bad for the guy getting up to go make $20 an hour, many of those guys are my family and friends, many of whom make a lot less than that even. I do feel bad for the guy who thinks that somehow the money he makes determines his happiness and value, that is quite sad. Nothing wrong with having lots of money and nice things, I enjoy them as much as the next guy, and work hard to have them. However putting down others for what they make and somehow thinking that you are in some way superior to them because of how much money you have or make, which is how that came off, it's pretty sad.

I'm sure you were just a little ticked with what everyone was saying to you, but that's no need to put down the entire middle class of this country

Nice Camaro
I agree with everything except the part about 20 bucks an hour being middle class. Unfortunately I think you need to be around 30 bucks an hour to qualify as middle class these days.

Not withstanding the op coming off as a total douche bag, his claims of the hp levels he's at should tell you a greater story. Poor guy is delusional and has no idea what he's talking about even on a good day. I see guys like this all the time and I feel sorry for them.

I would agree and say that $20 is probably at the lower end of the spectrum, but still encompasses the middle class. $30/hour would too. So yes, we are both right lol. I know what you mean in terms of needing to make more these days to have that same "middle class" lifestyle with the cost of living, which these days is typically attained by the household having 2 incomes of people on the lower end of the pay scale spectrum.

Well answered Op, I don't get the jealousy of people out here. It's unacceptable from people driving 40k cars that 99% of the world population can't afford. Be satisfied and thankful to God driving a Camaro and stop hating on young kids whose parents worked hard enough to buy them 100k cars. I wish luck to you OP and your friend with your cars and be careful.
