I was 17 when I got my Z... 9 years ago; I still have it, she has 19k miles in mint condition. Now I'm making a great living, own a home and help my parents whenever they need anything - whether it be financially or whatever else to return their favor. I never understood when people say, "It was handed to you, you didn't have to work for it." It wasn't handed to my parents, they came here from a different country (Italy) and worked endless hours for their kids to have a better life than they did. I will one day with the help of God do the same for my children; it's how you raise your children that make them spoiled, not what you buy them. I was very well disciplined and was taught the meaning of earning something on my own and that's why I am where I am today. I only read the first few comments of this thread starting from page 1 so I'm not sure where this eventually led to - but I know what the OP was trying to get at.
I made your whole post bold for you. Explain to me where you said how you got your Z. Seems to me mommy and daddy bought trying to give a better life to their kid, nothing wrong with that, but you sure didnt work hard for anything. Learn to comprehend what you write.

Like I boldly mentioned in my previous post, I've learned how to respect valuable things by the way I've been raised. So maybe we should start a thread "Mommy and Daddy helped their kids pay for college, what do they know about working hard?" Let's tell parents not to help their kids at all, that makes sense. Apparently, a lot of people on this forum have the same mindset on the "17 year old" subject - but one last question, if it were offered to you would you turn it down?
Also, since - I have managed to land a 6 figure job, bought several other vehicles, and helped family in any struggles they've had. I'm the last person that anyone would say doesn't work hard. In summary of my original post in which I fully comprehend, this thread shouldn't be as broad as just saying "17 year olds" and moreso a case by case basis.

2+2=4, way to go you picked up on the moral of my post without directly having to say, "Mommy and daddy..."

You just lost any credibility with that last paragraph. Since this is the internet and everyone seem to have a 6 figure job and a big breasted ***** of a wife with 4 houses at the age of 21 I find your post to be very unbelievable since you did not mention your other houses or your big titty wife. Get it together bro.

Yep, I never said I earned it... I specifically said they did "by working endless hours, etc." I guess at this point I'd have to keep repeating myself to you, because you're obviously not really understanding so I guess I'm done with it.
As far as your "Thank you ^"

That's a $410k house purchased in 2007, by yours truly being paid by that 6 figure NJ utility "Service Specialist" salary.

I'm 17 and i had a 93 civic for a long time until my dad rear ended me when we were driving in traffic. Totaled that, so my dad bought us the 350Z and "gave" it to me. His car was totaled as well, so its more of our car than mine.
