what should I do?

[WayFast84]

Well i recently got a BIG check from work, and have been pulling money in left and right from mowing lawns and babysitting. Im building up a nice bank!! should I return my nitrous and put the money in the bank? or keep it for the car and then in a few years get a bigger and better kit? Im not trying to buy any more parts for my car just trying to do lots of weight reduction. and if I did return my nitrous id get about $300 back from it. Do you think a 92k and 22 year old motor could even handle it?

[Savage_Messiah]

return the nitrous, put all the money into the bank, let it sit there and collect interest

:stupid:

[WayFast84]

thats what I thought I should do and will do. now the only thing left I gotta do is finish the cam install!!! and then get her running

while your spending time on the intraweb, start looking at the stock market... learn about it and learn it well. learn other ways to invest your money as well.. street cars are NOT an investment, we will never EVER get back what we put into them, let alone more. While your car is sitting in the driveway until you can drive it, let your money sit somewhere earning interest and/or increasing in value so that when the time comes you can do what you want with it.

you knwo that they're gonna look back through their payroll and realize they messed up, and then when they see that you didn't say anything and tried to get away with it they'll fire your ass right?

:lol: You really think Ill care if im fired? their lucky I didnt quit yet. and Im not sure how many hours its for BUT I only worked 7 hours two weeks ago. Maybe it was from a previous day or two rolling over no clue. I was just shoked cause I was expecting like 50 bucks :lol:

[79CamaroDiva]

well, do what you want... but it doesnt look good to future employers for getting fired for dishonesty.. they'll look for references.

[WayFast84]

it says my hours I worked and everything matches up, I guess it was a roll over from last check, ill ask them next week when i go back

[ryanfx]

you should get a job as a server. I made 140 dollars in 8 hours working at the olive garden tonight.

[WayFast84]

Melissa has the right idea here- all of the money that you ACTUALLY earn- (not that you accidentally receive) you should put into the bank at 14. I know people are usually not that smart- and I didn't even have my first job until I was 17- but, if you save some money, later on when ur 20-21 you can invest in different things and start making some stuff. I won't get into it here, but working on Wall Street provides you a TON of good insight into what/how to invest- if ya ever want to talk about it, let me know. I am by no means an expert, but I do know quite a bit about investing now.

So yeah... dude, for what it's worth my advice in all seriousness would be this- ENJOY BEING 14!!! trust me- when you're in the real world and you have to wake up at 4:20 every morning- you're going to wish you were 14 again with no worries and no cares. So enjoy it while you have it. You have PLENTY of time to gather money for cars- heck, when I was 14 I had a freaking BIKE and I thought I was pimp! :-P (I put a playing card in the spokes for that motorcycle feeling!) :)

huh????

[WayFast84]

I dont want to put any more money into it any more, I just want to get it runing and then get the enterior looking nice, and then fix a few cosmetic problems.

I was looking on ebay for 84 trans ams and came across a trans and it said the retail value was 8 g's so i went on that site and checked mine

I know thats high retail BUT i think i can get that because my trains is rebuilt and have new paint with less then 200 miles on both. but Of coarse its not for sale till I at least drive it around for a few months and make it worth while.

[Fast92RS]

Just get what you want. Spend it you cant take it with you.

[WayFast84]

I will,

thats why Im saving up.

If im going to do any MODS to my car besides restoring things its gonna be a rear with 3.73's and intrax 2'' lowering springs



Thanks guys!. Im gonna go package everything now!!

Yes, put it into the 98TADRIVER fund. the only interest youll get is my interest of taking your money and investing it into the 98
TADRIVER fund. :)

I like this guy. Have some fun. $150 isn't much in the real world, but you sure can have some fun with it now. I wouldn't sink it into your car though.

the NADA book is as useless as your LG4. Galves is the truth

[Firebird67dude]

I think car fires cause the value to go down right? Alnog with if u told the guy buying the car that a 14 yr. old worked on it and set it on fire. and dropped it when it was on jack stands. I know I wouldnt buy the car if i was told that.

[ar0ck]

Good luck getting more then 2k for your car. i don't care what you have done to it, your car will never fetch that much money ever. I couldn't even get 1,500 for my old 85 Trans Am. It was a solid straight car, 350/th350 combo and ran pretty dam good.

[V]

the low retail is $2,063. thats closest to your value... read the descriptions, and retail means more or less if a dealer sold it, private party gets only about 80% of that, so figure like 1600 is what you may be able to get for your car, add on low mileage, and mods and paint, and that'll bring it to 2200 at most.

[WayFast84]

It was a joke, i found it hard to beleive as well.

this thread was about keeping or returning my nitrous.

mods you can lock and delete this thread...
