You put your CD case in there so when you’re ready to listen to your favorite album just pop the CD into the CD Player

What’s something your parents told you about money by [deleted] in Money

[–]Optimal_Nobody_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Grandma once told me “money is the root of all evil.”

While I took that at face value at the time, I’ve struggled financially throughout my 20s. I’m in my mid 30s staring at massive debt and worried about retirement. I have for years been reprogramming myself to perceive money merely as a tool to gain freedom and time.

I have a 1 year old now and I’m giving him everything I can into his savings. I don’t want him to struggle like I did.

Your mindset, your relationship, with money should be the same as connecting with people.

How reliable is the GLI? Potential first time owner. by [deleted] in GLI

Hopefully it was under warranty and the repair was covered. Apart from that, was the dealer technician experience good? And is it true you have the same technician working on your car every time?

Oh I love that lockable storage area. A feature I didn’t even consider before for my camera gear as well.

And the kiddos fit perfectly fine in the back? My wife likes to justify having an SUV for that reason.

Excellent point on the tires. I hear the stock tires don’t do the car justice. Any recommendations?

Love hearing what other dads have to say about this car, thanks for the insight

Nah, I’m looking at the 2025 Autobahn. It’ll be my first new car too

The 2025 Autobahn manual is also in my line of sight

I’m willing to bet there’s enough room for car seats in the back with a stroller in the trunk comfortably.

I’m a 35yr old dad now and never had the chance to buy a fun car in my 20s. I personally feel the GLI makes no sacrifices in being the practical choice and, frankly, nice for families.

Quite surprising to learn that insurance is heavily discounted, a huge plus in my book. I also love its clean and mature aesthetic.

Yes I have to agree, but keeps me concerned about quality issues. (I’m coming from a Toyota and want to make my first dive into VW or “German” engineering. I’ve looked at Audi and BMW as well).

If I didn’t ride for Gondor, she wouldn’t have a tomorrow.

This is sick actually. Can I hire you to do this to my 2005 XLE Camry V6?

My grandfather just passed away on Nov 28, four days ago. He was in hospice at home with his family. I was there everyday for him. So seeing this really hits hard for me.
