I was one of those "kids" back in the 2000's. In my mid 20's with a new big ass 100k boat & new diesel chevy. My mortgage was affordable and my vehicles were paid for. Then I got back into racing and my wife wanted to have kids. LOL!
I remember being at the sand bar when my shockwave was brand new and this drunk asshole guy from Yorba Linda in his 50's comes over and implies that my dad bought my boat or I did something wrong or illegal to get it. He had a chip on his shoulder no doubt.
I told him he needs to work harder and stop worrying about what other people have or earn. Almost had to kick his ass. Some lady dragged his drunk ass back to his friends ratty pontoon boat.
I don't regret a second of it. The time the wife and I had before kids traveling and going to the river was living life and building our bonds. Something to hold onto because now days with braces, swim team, volleyball and whatever various girl shit going on around here I don't have the dedication in me to go all out on a boat. In fact when I do sell mine it's part of my 911 GTS down payment. I'll get another one eventually but I just don't have the time for this shit right now.
Moral of the story.. Dont hate on the younger guys coming up with lots of toys. Good for them livin a life worth remembering.
