hey for all those auto enthusiasts out there who have read my replies and forums, i apologize if i may seem cocky or inconsiderate in any way, like showing off or bragging about things, but i am relatively wealthy and lucky, and spoiled. To be honest with all of u out there, i hate being rich, sure its everybody's dream, but for me, its like a spoiled richness, id rather earn my stuff than jus have it there for me, i like to work for my stuff, and earn wut i work for, so just a little word id like 2 share

No need to apologize, but if you don't like the way you're acting...change it. You telling us you hate bieng rich is bieng cocky all by itself. It's like a beautiful girl saying " You know...it's hard to be beautiful..." If you feel bothered by your own attitude, then change it.

When you posted the "prom ride" thread, we're you posting it to show off the Bently or were you posting it to find out who drove what to prom???>>> (thread name) "let's see your jewelry, here's mine..." See where I'm getting at?

But don't worry, I don't have anything agianst you :wink:

I've only seen a few of your posts, but I don't hate you, I actually kinda like you... in an anonymous interent chat forum kinda way. Perhaps I sohuld read a little mroe of your posts before saying what I will, but I'll be brave.

Being wealthy isn't a punishment, and it shoudln't feel like it. You gotta play the hand you're dealt, and sometimes you get a Royal Flush, sometimes you get nothing.

There's alos a lot of cocky rich people out there, and a greta deal of them have every right to be, they worked hard and earned this privilege, albeit not much of one, perhaps that word is far too strong. Anyways, if I'm making any sense whatsoever, I'm just goignt o say that don't feel bad about who you are, 90% of people who aren't you hate you, because you are you. Some people like me can look past that and just be cool about it.

The one tihng I began to ponder the other day after watching the pilot episode (I believe it was the pilot) of a show called The O.C. It's about a kid who gets a helping hand form a wealthy laywer out of a rough
neighbourhood and into an extremely opulent lifestyle in Newport Beach. Anyways after watching and seeing all the shit those kids got I began to wonder....

and then you're situation solidified my idea. If you have the car you claim, a Lorinsner Benz and countless other items worth a lot, use that to fund something that can make you money, you're own money. It just seems that you have all this stuff and you hate the fact that you didn't earn it, which is quite respectable, but unless you do something about it, other may not sympathsize with your situation.

So basically, find something you love and do what you can, financially and physically to make money doing what it is you love. It just seems that with the capital you could raise, there's a great deal of options for you to make some money on your own.

Just my outlook on your situation, hope I didn't offend you or anybody, these topics get touchy.


Oh ya, any pics of that sweet ass Benz would be mucho appreciated.

I'm not worried about it, but is it you who's wealthy or is it your parents? While your certainly part of the family, most often the kids weren't the ones doing the work to make the income. :wink:

Anyway, you might consider rereading your posts before submitting them and ask yourself if its something you really want to say.

my first car i got was in april 2001, i was 17, i leased a 2001 BMW 740i Sport, black on black, fully loaded, but just recently i financed my benz, and gave up my BMW, at the time of my senior prom in 2002, i was almost half way through my lease, and i took my dads Bentley out at the time i had my BMW, so thatz how it happened. My mom sold her CL55AMG, and drives an old famiy tradition of driveing an acura 3.2TL Type-S, she doesnt care muh of wut she drives, jus as long as its got 4 wheels, and a seat and an engine. My dad sold his Bentley 2 Eddie Murphey, and drive a BMW 760Li

Awesome. But I really love the Arnage T? Why'd he sellt hat? The 760Li is nice, but nowehere near Bentley status IMO.

BTW, I didn't even know that the 760's were out yet!

There is a difference between "sharing" with others about what you have and "bragging" about it. I personally didn't read into your posts that you were bragging. Sometimes when I get something new, or get bored (which is the case most of the time :p ), I like to share with others so I snap a pic and throw it online.

Life is full of the "haves" and "have nots". It's a fact and some people need to get over that. I am saying that about society in general, not at anyone directly on here. Some people are lucky enough to be born into a wealthy family and get all spoils of privlege. Sounds like a great life huh? But money doesn't mean happiness, it doesn't buy you respect (and for those that think it does, it's not genuine respect). And you might end up with "friends" you wouldn't have otherwise. You have to work to earn your respect and happiness comes from accepting where you are at in life. If you don't like where you are at in life, only YOU have the power to get off your bum and do something about it.

Jealousy is a dark and hateful characteristic to have. Alot of the problem with today's society is we (general) sit and around worrying about who has what and how can we be better and outdo the others? I think alot of "stess" today is from trying to keep up with the Joneses. You are trying to keep up with your neighbor, he's trying to keep up with a co-worker, the co-worker is trying to keep up with the boss, the boss is trying to keep up with the CEO of the competing business., etc. etc. I have had wealthy friends who became jealous of other wealthy friends, one thing led to another, and friendships were destroyed....all that drama over what? To prove who has the better toys?

Life is too short. Like Porshe said, you were dealt the card you have. Sometimes you get a Royal Flush, and other times you get nothing. If people would accept that and make changes necesseary to make things better, instead of seething over why someone gets this and I don't, the world would be a better place.

For many years I was unhappy about where I was with my life...but instead of doing something about it, I bitched about it. Finally one day I got the bright idea to get up and get busy instead of rotting away in my own self-pity. Today I couldn't be happier. No I am not making a million dollars, but I have enough to support a household, feed and clothe myself, and most important have a family that loves me regardless :D

STFU. LOL


Try being poor and then complain about being rich...

If you don't like it so much, then why don't you do something about it? If you don't like being spoiled, then don't accept the spoils. Get a job and pay your own way if that's what you really want.

This is the internet, and you can be anyone you want. You could say you're a blonde girl with epilepsy and we'd never know (or care), but you are the one making it a point to tell everyone how rich you are, so if it makes you uncomfortable, then why'd you bring it up?

I don't believe you anyways, so whatever.

chasertourv,

I wouldn't worry to much about what people think about you on the web...the most important thing is to be happy with who you are and what you do in life.

You are very young, and that youthfulness will sometimes get the better of you...I get the feeling you know alot about cars, and love them. You want to find others who are as obsessed about cars as you - this is fairly obvious, as you have posted to nearly every forum in here: ES, LS, 6-Series, 7-Series, AMC, 600, MG, etc., mostly just trying to start a conversation.

It is possible that sometimes you may jump in too fast or try too hard, and either skew some facts or create contradictions. The famous prom thread with the misunderstanding of your cousin posting your age wrong, and the model-year of Bentley being accedentally misstated, was a prime example. Another example: Above you posted this:
My mom sold her CL55AMG, and drives an old famiy tradition of driveing an acura 3.2TL Type-S, she doesnt care muh of wut she drives, jus as long as its got 4 wheels, and a seat and an engine.
and in another thread, you posted this:
my moms a speed demon when she got sick of not able to pass slow driver while at the same time trying to exit, so she bought a 2000 Volvo V70 R AWD wagon, the fast one which went 0-60 in 6.1 seconds,(which is pretty fast for a Wagon), and shes waiting for the S65 to come out.
There are obvious conflicts in these two statements. That doesn't have to mean they are a lie...maybe your mother had a Volvo wagon, was waiting for the S65, decided to get the CL55AMG, thought it was too much, and bought an Acura. But one statement that she doesn't care what she drives seems to conflict with the other that she is a speed demon, and is waiting for the S65, which would make her sound a bit mor elike an enthusiast. Again, please don't take this as an attack...I just wanted to point out an example of what sets some people off, and creates all the anti-posts. Some older folks here will immediately become defensive, and assume you are lying, trolling, flaming, etc. Maybe you are, maybe you aren't.

In a thread like this, you come off as fairly sincere, and more understandable, so I'd tend to give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you just excitedly jump into threads without always thinking it through. I can sympathize with you there...I was quite obsessed with cars all my life, from 5 years old, and found it very hard to find others with the same zeal. I had no internet when I was growing up, so I had no other outlet for my enthusiasm...but if I did, I'd probably have been out there trying to jump on every thread about every car in the world. My advice would be the same as that given by someone else...maybe just back up for a second, and think about what you are posting...is it really worth it? Will it create conflict? Why am I really posting this...do I really want to know what others think, or am I just letting everyone know what I know?

As for your wealth and the cockiness or bragging rights that come with it...I don't doubt that your family is well off. I came from a very poor family - I even spent a few months of my young life living in a VW bus with my mother and father, who was selling paintings on the side of the street. Noone in my family ever went to college until me. I was lucky enough to have had my mother marry a well-off man when I was 14 - and I went from sharing a rented bedroom in a duplex with my mother to suddenly moving to swanky Boca Raton, Florida in a huge house with pools and jacuzzis and billiard rooms. I even got a new car when I turned 15...something that likely never would have happened before the marriage.

What I have learned since living in Boca Raton is that 18-year-old with BMWs and AMG Mercedes' are not that rare. Alot of people seem to have immediate doubt that you could have a car like yours...and yet there are kids in my neighborhood who have Ferrari 360s, Porsche 911 Turbos, and a vast collection of virtually every model of BMW and Mercedes made. Many of these kids have no appreciation for what they have and will likley live off their parents' money for the rest of their lives.

Much like what you mentioned, I decided I really wanted to earn my own way, with a little help from the rich parents - they bought me a college education and a new Mitsubishi Montero SUV when I graduated, and I immediately moved to the other end of the country (California) to make my own way...working as a car salesman so I could afford to rent an apartment until I would work my way up the ladder. I eventually leased an apartment, but lost it in the 1994 earthquake, and decided to move back to Florida on my own. I got a good job with a financial advisory firm which I've now been with for nearly 9 years, and worked my way up to afford a house and a decent car. And surprisingly, I have enjoyed and appreciated my Pontiac, my Hyundai, and my current Volkswagen which were all bought with my own money...even though I probably could have gotten something worth a bunch more from my parents' money.

So enjoy your passion for cars, mellow out on some of the postings, dont' worry about other people's responses, and forge your own path in life so you can earn things without your parents' money...believe me, you'll appreciate it so much more! :smile:
