only for some people...if you get too mod happy you'll be living in your car because you'll be in debt. I hope one of the mods is an "in-car" refridgerator!

Dave B- what crackheads do you know that sign up for a credit card with 18% APR??????????? That is suicide.. I have 0% APR on the 7500 I spent on my Platinum Plus Visa for the first six months and after that it goes up to 11%, at which point I will have paid off maybe half and then apply to MBNA for them to pay it off and then I pay them the rest with 0% interest for 6 more months.

When it comes down to it.. 7500 on 0% APR isn't bad.. especially for a year, which is more than enough time to pay this all off..

bro, you're not alone. I live in Staten island now, but used to live in BK... there are ****loads of jobs in Bk, depends what you want to do and how much you want to earn. I vallet park cars now, it's easy and fun, and quick cash. I did something perhaps very dumb and wasted all my cash on the car, then i lost a cool job the day after WTC and money was really tight, I was frustrated at 1st and wasn't having much success finding a job either, (seemed like not even McDonalds was hiring, lol). But hey, go find a job, you'll have $ left over, i ossume u live with your parents still? so be thankful u have no bills or rent to pay! go to your college job office or whatever it is called there and try to have them hook u up with a job, every school should have one. If not that, you have a car right, you can always deliver pizza or something...
If you want, I can give you some spots that are looking for drivers, also if you want to do vallet, i can hook you up with that too

Bottom line... Don't waste all your money on your car, it isn't everything. I'd say a large percentage of people here have full time jobs, go to school and pay rent and bills. Some choose to spend more money then the others on mods.

easiest way to avoid credit car debt is to NOT use your cc. what i do is make sure i have the $$$ in my checking account before using my cc. keep your eye on the spending and make sure you have the money in the bank just to keep yourself safe...
