lord of the valves


When I was 21 I went from making $20k/yr to about $90k, and my only bills were car insurance, gas and $150/mo for living in my grandmother's guest house. I bought a lot of stuff I didn't need and everything I had was disposable. I built a new computer about every 3 months and gave my old computers away to friends. I had a couple Grand Nationals with thousands of dollars in go-fast parts, a lot of which were still uninstalled when I got rid of the cars, and I bought a new Cobalt as a beater. I paid cash for everything. I didn't start building credit history until I was 25.

Now I'm better, though. :) I move all excess money to a savings account that I have no access to other than doing wire transfers or physically going to that bank. It came in handy when I had to pay lawyers and stuff.
