I'm not trashing his dreams. I'm being realistic. Just like in "Blow"...
George you've got the wrong dream.
I'm just trying to enlighten the guy. He's 18, making money. His goal should be to be able to afford the car and having it be only x% of his total savings. That way he has a car and he has money. If not the poor kid is going to pour all his money into a car that he can't afford and then as soon as something happens, bye bye car. He's got a chance to start building a good financial base at a very young age. Instead he's going down a path that will probably end up with him living in debt throughout his 20s (at least).
