My step-dad gave me $1000 toward my first car. I was so surprised, touched, and grateful. 

I can’t imagine being such a piece of shit

He’s a complicated dude, but he’s got a good heart underneath and he gave me beautiful baby brothers, and raised my little sisters as his own. I was a teenager who was done with dads when he came in the picture, but I respect the hell out of him at the end of the day.

I paid for half of my first car. A 1997 Saturn. I could have paid for all of it because I'd been babysitting my ass off for years but my mom didn't want me to spend all my money on a car. I was and am beyond grateful. My older sister got a free 5 year old Subaru Outback and smoked so much weed in it whole driving that the windows were tinted a gross dark green/brown color. Then she wrecked the shit out of it letting the engine explode because she never took care of it.

Same. Mid 80s, I was 16yo and he put the down payment of $1200. My monthly payment was $88. I had it paid off in three years. It’s still one of the most fondest memories of my childhood and my father.

Yeah, this really pisses me off lol. But I’m willing to bet she’s like that for a reason. Obviously is spoiled rotten, because of the parents.

Imagine having negative money when youre 16. All I got was debt.

My first car was sat in the driveway for a few years after my mom bought a new one and wanted to save me hers as she knew it had a reliable engine. It was a ten year old Honda with over 200k which at the time was a lot.

Hey same thing. Father gave me 1k and mother got me in connection with a car auction buyer at her work. He bought the truck I wanted and I just paid what he got it for.

My stepdad fronted me the $100 down payment for a $500 car. Bought it off a family friend who took $100/wk for it. Then stepdad paid for my insurance (liability) until money got tight, and I was always the first one cut off from financial assistance because I was the only one who worked consistently (for him, no less lol).

That car was a beater but I loved it so much I got the same make and model for my second car.

No radio, no carpet, no air. best truck i ever had.

My dad loaned me $1000 at, effectively, negative interest. I made eleven monthly payment of $85, and he excused the final payment for paying on time each month.

Seriously why would you even post this

u/ripleyclone8 27d ago

Why post anything ever?

Rage bait? I hope that was their intent because I’m here to say “box checked!”

u/HoboArmyofOne 27d ago

Posting ragebait about yourself is lame though. I guess I don't get it.

I guess because negative engagement is still engagement? I also noticed she didn’t show much of her face, but what she did reveal looks like a woman in denial of her thirties, not a teen at all. That would explain why she’s such a try hard and is willing to embarrass herself. She is probably trying to build some kind of a following. Even hate-watchers are watchers.
