Your question is much larger than it appears.

Car or house all becomes much clearer when you actually build yourself a financial plan and set yourself some clear goals and objectives.

A hundred people told me that when I was 20.... when you are 20, most of us do not see things the way we do when we are ... well, much older than 20.

When I was about 25, I started settling myself some goals and the old adage , "what you write becomes true" actually works. Try it!

Someone mentioned earlier that the Lotus won't exactly be very conducive to driving clients around. That is an excellent point. If you do not already have a suitable car for that, you should work on that first. It is a tool to help you earn. I know you want the toys now, but just know that they are just as much fun when you get older too.

Someone else said that it depends where you live. So true. There are parts of Canada where you can still buy a house for $150,000 and others start in the $400K range. This all has an impact on your decision making.

Oh... and to the guy who said all the roads in Canada suck... Yes, that sometimes is true, but I've been to your state and I saw some pretty backwoods sh** out there too. I filled up at one of your small towns and the snaggle-toothed half-wit who wanted to fill my tank would just as soon bone you up the *** as pump your gas.

There are all kinds everywhere, bub.

It's true. There are some crappy roads around where I live, but there are also some pretty nice ones.

Let's leave the generalizations to the ricers, huh?
