Default Re: Car Mods a waste of money?

The secret is (for me anyway) to spend money you have spare on cars, but not to the detriment of your future, bought my first real car (XB GS Coupe) at 17, bought my first house at 21, busted my balls and paid first house off at 30, sold house and build bigger house, busted my balls for another 10 years and sold house again.

Then decided to go all out and move into the bush and really bust my balls to earn more cash, and build my dream house and shed at a dream location, three months to go and I will be living in it.

All along spend little by little on cars and have build up a nice collection of cars I like.

Obviously if cars is not your thing then it's a waste of money.

In the mean time I have also had a LOT of fun, enjoyed life, raised a family have pets, horses and other hobbies and lived and worked in some great places.

It's about balance, spending all your cash on cars is a waste if you ask me.
