Re: How do you afford it?

I get $12.50/hr 3-5 hrs a week, at my local public access channel. Good pay for a fun and easy job, and it pays for what the rents don't, like parts for my Tahoe. I am definitely lucky that my parents pay gas and ins, etc, but i know what work is and i work all summer on the farm, and this summer i will work at the pub. access, so i'm not a spoiled little rich kid, like some i know. My dad is the Director of Treasury at a major hog company, and he has worked a long time, and i respect him and my mom's dedication to our hog farm, family and community, and i know how to work and succeed, all life lessons from my parents.
