Riiiiiiighhhht....

Some of us had nice stuff, some of us had beaters. I had both beaters and decent stuff, and now that I'm on my own I can afford nicer stuff. Either way, why begrudge someone for doing the exact same thing you probably would in their place?

My thinking on it was. He can buy the car by himself. Did he check into insurance to see how much it's going to cost him. Or if it goes on his parents insurance. He's a first time driver with NO time behind the wheel. So he's going to get hit big time.
