    My money hasn't really changed with the economy but with the uncertainty I've been saving the money i would normally be spending on projects etc. Although i am still working on my newest project, just at a slower rate. I feel better with money in the bank

    Eh...with me it was just when I totaled out the Civic and the check from the insurance company went towards paying the car off instead of me receiving it...extremely hurt. I put a lot of money in to the car & I didn't even have the title yet. So I've just decided this time around to use my money towards paying my Accord off and THEN mod it once I have the title. Car should be paid off by the end of next summer if I use my income tax money & then keep up the monthly payments afterwards...Atleast then I will be able to do what I want to the car & if I do get hit again, atleast I can profit from it next time.

    The economy has made me a little stricter with my inventory for my businesses as far as putting too much money into it, but car plans haven't changed. Still have my 3 + a bike. Looking to get rid of my G35 and replacing it. I have been back and forth for 8 months or so about which car to replace it with. I am looking at a new BMW M3 or Lexus GS460 if I get a car this year. Or I am going to save up for late next year and get a new Audi R8. Still undecided though.
