Hey the Tiggster doesn't drink, doesn't smoke, doesn't do drugs, doesn't have any kids or child support, doesn't have a car payment, doesn't have a bike payment, and I rarely eat out (unless someone else is paying ).

On the plus side, I get $1755 per month unemployment and my total bills are about $7-800 per month. Ha in fact my gf has been paying my electric bill because she been staying over and cranking the AC up! Seriously, sit down once and add up what your habits and dining out costs you. You might be surprised...

I'm not the one bitching about off topic and I posted a thread about a MOTORCYCLE HELMET. I don't think that anyone ever said that every post in every thread has to be motorcycle related. I'm definitely not one to try to keep shit on topic!!!

Ha nah, I just have different priorities than other people.... I'm always being asked how I afford so much stuff. Some people have thought I was a drug dealer or something. I always answer the same way...

No smoking=$150/month
No drinking=$200+/month
No dope=$200+/month
No Applebee's=$200+/month
No car payment=$400/month
No bike payment=$200/month

What would you do with an extra $12,000/year? I buy helmets, electronics and other tangible crap...

Hmmm. I like this idea of 12k a year extra. But I can give up the brewski, and I do love Applebee's. Still paying for that damn JGC and this Buell. Oh well.

Oh, and 200 a month for Applebees? Shit. I dont spend that much. Not even close.
