Now I'm not sure if you're illiterate, struggle with reading comprehension, or are just plain stupid, tbh ๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿคฃ If you aren't even able to figure out what's being discussed to this degree... Well, it's been said that it is often wiser to remain silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth (or keyboard, in your case, in case you're struggling again) and remove all doubt.

Why don't you get the adult that's supposed to be watching you and see if they'll help with some of the big words, slugger? Or at least ask them to help you to learn to read gooder.

See the benefit to hanging out in your garage wrenching on old trucks is that guy wont be there talking about how a Roth IRA would be a far better investment.

It's incredible, there is no statement, no matter how ridiculous, that someone won't take seriously on this platform.

Also today I went out and bought an old truck. Lol.

My wife and I have to move in a few months into our new place, then there will be the ikea trips, trips to the dump and landscaping to do so I ran some numbers.

If I rent a pickup 1 weekend a month for 12 months that will cost me $2880 so I bought a $2500 high mile but well serviced truck with registration till december. No ball ache of booking it, going and collecting or returning it. I can get it filthy, scratch it... doesnt matter. Provided it doesnt explode, I am financially ahead.

Yeah, It doesn't take long for equipment to pay itself off compared to renting.
