Saving For A Hotrod Is A Lot Like A Long Boring Diet!

 

Classic Hot Rod Music to INSPIRE!

   So, saving up for a hotrod is a lot like going on a diet. At the beginning of the diet pounds are falling off and progress is fast. Your mind is filled with thoughts and dreams of activities you are going to be doing and cool clothing you will be fashionably showing off. After a couple weeks, the drudgery sets in. You are still loosing weight but it is much slower and commands a lot more dedication to make even the smallest goal. In your heart you know progress is being made... just not FAST ENOUGH!
  That is EXACTLY what saving your money for a hotrod is like. In the beginning you start the savings and put in a lump of cash, immediately your pea brain starts dreaming of the bad ass 32 hiboy you will be rattling the neighbors windows with. Dreaming of the color scheme that is going to turn heads, dreaming of the huge motor that is gonna crush all those that dare oppose you. But then slowly you realize the winning scratch off is never sold at your grocery store, and the reality of how long you are going to be eating ramen noodles and selling plasma hits you. Each week a little of my check goes into a secondary savings account. Every week i try to sell off something that is just collecting dust and every week I look at the bank account. I take a deep sigh, and get my ass back to work.
  Doing the right thing is tough, but in the long run sticking to a diet and saving up for your dream hotrod might suck in the dog days of summer you just gotta keep your eyes on the sweet sweet honey that awaits. Oh I will be rattling windows, not today or tomorrow... but soon.
