Default My Z makes sure I'm broke

"Why am I always broke?" I ask myself daily, as I wait for my Z at the $20 car wash.

"I better stay home tonight and save money", I think to myself as I spend all night in search of new parts and Nismo gear on ebay.

"I'll pick you up", I tell my friends while on the cell phone, pumping gas at $3.95 a gallon.

I do love it though!

You're right, but I'm hooked. Everything I have to own, even the stupid thermous that plugs into the car lighter to keep coffee warm. I don't even drink coffee!

I recommend getting a job if your gonna complain about being broke.

And who would spend $20 on a car wash if they dont have that much money.

You my friend... FAIL HARD.

I think the OP is being facetious. I don't think it makes him literally broke, but that he spends so much money on it because he loves the car.

Well you coudl start by learnign to wash your car yourself. Saves a lot of money and the care u'll put into will make it come out looking better than some car wash who doens't give a **** about your car.

Actually, politicians do. AND bankers, and crude oil speculators, and insurance
companies, and private schools, and pharmaceutical companies, and the Elite (i.e. the Shadow Government). Our Zees are just "innocent bystanders", dude!

Parts make me broke, but I sacrifice **** in the end and I guess being a impulse buyer isnt really helping either. I can have money without spending it oh well ........ *looks at thenismoshop.com* oh hey!!!
