ok, so alpine gets a fat check and tinkertrain says sit on it and watch it grow in a few years. what are you going to do with that 20gs when it actually gets that much? Are you going to spend it? or are you going to sit on it and watch it grow even more? So what if he wants to spend it now or later. Who gives a shjt if he spends it on his car. If cars is his passion then i dont see a damn thing wrong with pissing the money on parts.

I got $3500 from my taxes, nice little present (seeing as this is my 1st year of being married and being able to claim it).

So I paid off debts with it. Nothing like getting rid of so much debt. Aside from that we're preparing for the kid we're getting ready to have.

What would I do if I were you? Save it for a rainy day
