Joing the Marines won't get you now where but Iraq. I have a wife so she spent most of the money why I was gone last but i'm going back in Feb so Im going to control the money this time so by the time I get back I can do most the things I want to my truck..

Nooo, have a great G/F im always with and who goes to the mall and movies, its all parties and I live in Pensacola, FL so theres no plave better then the Beach...I just dont have money laying around to go spend like most teens.

I busted my butt as a bus boy at Texas Roadhouse for a year and a half to save to get my bags its hard but if you want it you have to save so I didnt buy hardly anything and worked as much as I could to finally get my bags.

Find a hot chick that likes trucks too, marry her, add a second income, then you can spend less time chasing poon, then you can git r done.

My first truck I built I worked two jobs and worked seven days a week. Paid cash for everything by saving every penny I made. That was a long time ago. I have morgages,cable,kids, wife, phone,electric, truck, car, insurance on Home, company, and vehicles. I wish I still lived at Home. LOL But hey I spend what I can when I can and have a couple nice rides. I guess lifes not too bad. Just dont use credit cards.

if you want it bad enough, it will happen. when i was your age i worked a full time and a part time job.

when someone wants to be in a band, it makes sence to them to play crappy gigs and practice all the time. they don't have to talk themselves into it, they just do it.

if you really want it, and if you have to work all the time to get it, in you eyes it will be worth it.

good luck

I worked at Krispy Kreme for 6 months when i was 16 saving everything i got. I saved enough to put a 5/10 drop on my 93 chevy and save enough for bags. I ended up selling the truck before i ever put the bags on.
