My 36k tool set (pics)
i don't think you'll ever have to worry about warranty on an Ingersoll they'll outlast their warranty easily. the only way an ingersoll will die is if you never oil over the course of several months.

Even though I am jealous of that toolset,I have less then $500 in my tools and I have yet to come across much anything that I either 1) Didn't have the right tools for, or 2) couldn't rent the right tool for free from autozone for. Granted I wish I had good air tools and some other tools that make some jobs a bit easier. I know I am no professional or anything, and my tools aren't worth bragging about, but why on earth would you spend $36k on tools. Not trying to sound like the *** that I am surely sounding like, but I think I would have spent maybe $1k on tools and $35k on a used ZO6. But that's just me.

These tools are for light around the house use and electrical! I think it is all I need to do light work, at least till next year when my pull-barn is built! Then I will need at least 2 car lifts!
Pics of the new stuff and thr rest of the sockets up by the end of the day!

Dude, quite honestly you're full of ****. Every thing you've stated has been over-exagerated. That's ok though, you can claim all that stuff if you want. All I have to say is that you certainly did get raped!
10k YFZ 450 huh? I think not, try about $7300 with all those small mods you've got.

I dont blame you with your money. I would make sure I had a good amount invested in something that would only gain and buy what ever I want with the rest

Where did you get 160k no less than 100k for each camaro! I will NOT share pics of my 92" tell it is done! There are pics on my website of everything else!
I wish it wasn't so much! No reason to say I spent more than I did. I don't like being called a lier!

But then again everyone has advise and ways to spend my money! I have lost friends and even family treats to alittle different! Oh well It hasn't gone to my head I don't act better than anyone. I only tell people so they don't think I get money from mom,drugs,stealing,ect....
I never even tried and drug, no criminal record, and when to all Catholic boy schools!
I dont think BAD *** TA WS6 meant any harm with his statement. He was just stating a fact. I am a firm believer that school is very important (even if you are the child of Bill Gates's). I dont see a problem with spending that much money on cars and tools if you enjoy it, but education will only cost you a fraction of what you have already spent. If anything, go to school to become a mechanic or an engineer if you have it in you. Not saying that you will have to work as a mechanic or an engineer, but you will be able to work on your car with a lot more knowledge and understanding of the technical aspects. Anyway, I hope you meant it when you said you were going back to school in the Spring, b/c you may not now, but you will regret it later if you dont.
I dont mean to be rude in this post if that is how you are taking it, I just wanted to let you know the importance of education.
By the way: that is an awesome tool set
