Perhaps baller status is some function of net worth as defined, debt, and income? If your house is worth a ton and therefore your net worth is high, but your debt load is high while income isn't super high then you're likely house broke. If net worth is high, debt is low, but so is income then it's money on paper and likely not living "baller".

That's my point. Net worth is cool, but I feel like it's not practical in day to day. I want to know how hard you guys can ball on the regular, not how much you can flex on a piece of paper. Which is how this debate started to begin with.

Ok, you set up the poll then.

I want to see your cashflow statements, your balance sheets and income statements, your net projected EBITDA over the next 5 years, your last 3 workplace performance reviews, and I want to see a labor market competitive analysis too on you because how close are you to being laid off for cheaper competition? And let's take a look at how healthy your extended family's financials are as your safety net because that'll affect how much risk you can take on in investments over time. And then after that, we can debate at the end of the day I don't consider you a Revscene baller unless you're achieving top-10% risk-adjusted rates of return on your equity!!

i triple check to see if Uber Eats have 2 BBT for $10 before buying BBT? Does that count as baller status? Because $10 can get me like 12 cans of pop... and that will out last 2 BBTs...lolol

Congratulations to those of you with over a mil net worth. Even those at 500k net worth, regardless if it's your primary residence, those are some solid numbers. Regardless of what wormiez says

Whoever is 20-30 and over a mil net worth, I'm proud of you, and fuck you. LOL

Maybe he knew all you fkers were just going to challenge him.

"The part extending into your taint doesn't count because it doesn't even go in."

"The inch at the base doesn't even count for you, because let's be real your girl is a big girl and you can't use that."

"You're dick rich, penetration poor."

It's worth repeating that most car people typically do ok. Cars is very expensive hobby and it means most car ppl would be climbing the financial ladder to get the next big toy.

Bah. I’d argue that. Homegrown backyard automotive passion is strong, where you make things work with what you have. Sure, maybe not the new car scene, but it’s passion at its finest.

If you can afford to have anything worth several grand as a hobby, you are doing ok, never mind when we get to the 6 digits worth of car parts and toy cars.

Who says it’s not their A to B? I mean as a kid it was a hobby, I had a car, it had black painted rims, a homemade intake. Custom interior bits, DIY fiberglass speaker panels all on a part time McDonalds budget. Sure I may have made a few hundred bucks a month to spend on nothing but gas, car parts and junk food, but I wouldn’t call that well off?

Seperate “hobby” car, sure I get it. That’s a different level.

How many people on here are modding a 3k a to b car? You need to pop into latest pic of your whip thread more often.
In the real world, sure there are plenty of poor car enthusiasts, you can drive anywhere in Washington and see that lol. Here on RS though I'm speaking to RS demographic.
That said, if you're a kid that can do that on your McDonald's budget, you're still doing ok, cause you aren't giving your parents money to put food on the table.

You’re talking about Revscene. EvoFires comment above was “most car people.” That’s where I disagreed.

I'm trying hard to cut cost to deal with the interest rates.
Wife is still living in lalaland thinking and wanting to go shopping like crazy and eat out.
I'm here cooking every home meal; not to rant.

I'm shocked how people are buying loads of bottled water, paying for crazy netflix + pop + uber eats and eating out.

Man, i was in chinatown and the two ladies got the butcher to weight the meat and they had to put down 15.85 rack of ribs; they bought the 12.71 pork belly.

I thought my 40 dollar grocery was freaking expensive compared just 3 years ago; at least my 40 bucks can make it last for 5 days (15 meals). Pinching penny is hard.

Times are indeed tough if the average Corolla LE lease is 550 with zero down and 7% interest.

Not sure how the average Canadian are weathering this storm.

My brother leased a Forte GT Line (non turbo) and paid over $600 / month on 5 year lease. I say paid because he developed some medical issues and he had to move the car along. Luckily he found someone who'd take on the lease, but $600 for a Forte with no 'wah' just seems a little chromosome heavy.

But at least there's red trim bits everywhere!
