I agree. Giving yourself away cheap is not something to be proud of for a man or woman.
...but its still fun to poke fun at no fewer than 72 jokes

The 300ZX was the FIRST Z car I fell in love with, I am sure before you even hit puberty and way before I ever heard of ZDriver.com. I haven't brought it up because they cost a lot of money to BUY not because I have never wanted one, I have always wanted one. When it comes to working on the car where it may need to be down for a few days, that's where my OTHER Z comes into play. To me it's not that big a deal, and when you have friends that can help you work on things well then you can have fun too.

The second part of your response about the sex....that is just something people say that don't get to have sex or are jealous of me. Don't make me come up there and have sex with YOU!

Hold up... that's pretty much the attitude that spreads AIDS / STD's (which is why we have the "72" joke).

I'll do who I want when I want, I don't care.


Kind of a selfish outlook on things.

even with the relaxed view the world has on sex and relationships, that attitude is still generally looked down uppon. For me, I have moral values I hold and I do have shame. I have let myself down though... once or twice... but certainly fewer than 72 times.

My Z let me down once and I gave her the boot!

well any who, as far as the Z32 goes, i expressed myself, i say sit on teh idea for a while and hold the job make sure its steady, and research the cars, find out what your thinking of getting into. besides that i dont have much more to say to you, it is your money, it is your life, but honestly, a 33 year old man shouldnt stay at home with mommy because he has to take care of all his Zcars. money well spent is in an asset that will increase value, aka property,not a Z. but were all buddies still and im not chiming in again on the topic until you buy one/say you found the one. so lets get back to sex shall we?

That is not why I am living with my mom, people live with their parents all the time...it is no different then having a roommate...I pay rent and help with bills and take care of myself. It is expensive to live here in this part of Florida and there is nothing wrong with me doing this, it is a big house. I have been on my own before, I know what it is like...if I want something I have to work for it...my family isn't rich so I can't mooch like some people. But all said and done, I could care less what society thinks of me or if what I do is "frowned" upon...it's those people that make it their business to worry about what I do that need to focus on themselves and stop trying to control others or push their beliefs on others like they do in their households...if people don't like the way I am, too bad. I voice myself and yes I do what I like and I don't like people trying to control me. I don't understand why this makes people so mad that I am going to live my life the way I want when it makes ME happy. If those people are unhappy with their lives then work on it and stop waisting the effort on other peoples lives.

This country is so old fashioned and censored that it makes me want to puke. People are so worried that others will look down on them that they have to try to impress others and play follow the leader. I am not a sheep, I am an individual with my own thoughts and outlook on life and I am going to make the best of it for me. I am glad I am the way I am because I can make the best of whatever I need too in order to be happy. If you are a person that is happy pushing their ideals and beliefs on people please don't be upset when you come across someone like me because when you fail to change me you are only going to upset yourself. Now nothing I have said means I don't have any morals, I do have morals but only when it is important to have them.

Yes, let's get back to the sex.

Snw I don't know of much of anything that increases in value, most property ends up decreasing in value, almost rarely does property value ever go up. At least as far as housing goes.

^^^ Indeed. Everyone knows real estate is always increasing in value. Even in the "stagnant" areas of the US right now, property isn't losing value, it's steady or increasing a little. Property here in Utah has increased by 25% since Spring 06... My condo sold last spring for $80k... I bought it in Dec & paid $103k. Is that not increasing in value?

Although real estate values can go through periods of stagnation, they rarely ever loose significant value unless there's some other circumstance. ie. Your state decided to build a highway through your living room or the new crack house opened up business next door.

I bought in 1998 and my house is worth over twice what I paid... Double your money in less than 10 years... ummm...

the places that saw a decrease in value this summer were the areas that saw a very large and unrealistic price increase over the last year. The market is just kind of settling itself out when buyers just refused to keep paying more.

Looking over the course of a number of years you can get a better idea of the steady increase of property value. Southern California is the worse for value loss right now but also one of the worst for increases over the last couple years.
