[QUOTE="James, post: 14479, member: 2"] How do you know that, have you seen their bank accounts, just because me/you don't make that doesn't mean other people can't. And no you don't have to be making 500k to afford that, how do you not know that that guy spent the last 2 years saving up to buy a 2011 KX250F? <---My Plan :smirk: I just hate when people bitch at somebody else who has more then themselves without knowing the whole situation. Look at me, I consider myself to be in the (way) bottom of the middle class, yet I have a bought & paid for 05 KX250F, I drive an 04 F150, and I don't have any credit card debt either. But because of my age people [B]always assume[/B] that I'm either WAY in debt or my parents bought it. Yet that's not the case, for one I've had a job since I was 15. Second, I saved up all my "beer & cigarette" money from my teens and spent it on a bike and "brand new" :moon: gear. Third, my parents taught me good money skills when I was younger, you learn pretty quick when you have to buy ALL your own stuff.:smirk: When I see the 500K motorhomes (with matching trailers :lol:) at the track, I just thank them for supporting our sport. Somebody has to buy the new bikes or we wouldn't have any used ones.:ride: And if they can afford the bikes and MH you know that they're also dumping money into other areas of the sport.:thumb: Am I jealous? Of course, but what would this world be like without hope. :thumb: That sums it all up. :shocked: She must not have seen this yet because you're still here. [/QUOTE]
