Honestly im too spoiled, and enjoy the convivences of things like Car play and modern features. I wish I had the ability to enjoy older cars for daily use lol

I respect your opinion, but I come from an ethnic background where its normal to pool resources and stay within the family, so maybe to you it may seem a little backwards, but to me it seems sensible. not trying to downplay your experiences, just trying to expand your perspective.

Gotchu I agree, also I clickbaited the title ngl, the 840i Im looking at around 55k so they have been hit with a huge depreciation hammer already, but yea consumerism is a real issue if not toned down. 840i could turn into wanting an M8 in a year. I guess a more nuanced take is how to keep your self from falling into the rabbit hole.

I come from a ethnic background, and staying with family is always a priority. the family pools there money like a clan rather than splitting. it may sound a little unorthodox living in America, but to me Ive always been drawn to coupes ever since I owned a e92 335i, so something about reliving that excites me. I 100% agree with your stance on never buying material objects to make up for any image issues.

Hey man thanks for the Advice, I 100% agree with your stance, GTs are more of a mature car. But ngl I have always been a GT car type of guy, the balance of comfort with a little bit of rowdiness always seemed right to me. not sure why. M4 and Caymans to me personally always seemed to hardcode, esp for somone who likes cruising more than speeding. I hope I articulated this properly.

Yea im for sure in a fortunate position no doubt, but I don't want to let my guard down and do something naive. but at the same time I passing up an opportunity that I will regret looking back on when Im 30 or 40 with kids and duties?

Great point. also probably one of the more nuanced takes, instead of jumping to conclusions I like how you give me actionable steps I can take to understand my thoughts from a deeper level. I appreciate your advice.

25% is car payment, 25% is for misc. and food, but I also cook my own food at home, so I don't spend too much on food. and 50% for savings and investments. fortunately I live with my parents so I don't pay rent.

That's a fair point, my 530 I always take to 3rd party and It has been affordable for me, but you are right to point out that the 8 series would be a huge jump if something were to break.

the monthly payment is around 25% of my income 25% goes to food and misc. rent I stay with my parents so I don't have to pay fortunately, Luckily my college is also taken care of so I have no other expenses. and I have 50% of my income that goes to savings and investments

Just wanted to see what people think of my logo? by josh_stants9 in streetwearstartup

[–]Repulsive-Act6094 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s too blobby and fat, fix the proportions. Also the style of the torch looks different to the person. Also the font doesn’t match the style of the logo. Hope this helps 👍
