    Sage advice for the SBR hotshots and young guns
    Imagine that you're 16 again and you have two things on the mind: Girls and cars. You haven't achieved your maximum potential yet (as evidenced by your lack of time spent on SBR forums) so girls are out of the question for the time being. You figure that a car will help in this department but you don't have the cash on hand to buy one due to being barreled in. Unfortunately some sweet rubber band plays turned sour(the losses being ruled as gross statistical aberrations resulting in a return to a sample size of 0).

    You want a 1990 Toyota Tercel so bad because your uncle JJ rocks it hard and you want to be just like him. You saw it parked in front of the turkish bath last Tuesday and all the fly homieshoneys were crowded around it. What a life.

    Poof!(not the kind JJ likes) All of a sudden a genie appears in front of you. He says "I paco.You want car. You got it. But last car you have for rest of life." He disappears in a puff of smoke and in his place is the gleaming beauty of your dreams. You hug the Tercel tightly and it smells like salami.

    After many days of spindling, deli sandwiches, bubble gum throwing and rambling video logs the reality of your situation dawns upon you. "This is the last car I'm ever going to have you think. I better take real good care of it" So you read the manual 5 times, wash and wax it, keep it in the garage, fix every little problem that arises quickly etc.

    Well boys you are in the exact same position with your body and mind. You only get one of each and they have to last a lifetime. What you do now determines how they are going to operate 5, 10, 20 years from now. Think of that Tercel next time you order a pizza through SBR or snort coke off an erect shemale.

    I paraphrased but the gist of what I just wrote came from a book I finished reading yesterday - Snowball:Warren Buffett and the business of life by Alice Schroeder. The quote originates from Buffett so if you want to ignore me that's fine but try to listening to him.

    I hope you all stay healthy SBR.
