I bought a car from my brother in law when he was moving. I got it for cheap and was going flip it and double the money. The piece of shit had front end damage. put me about 5k in the hole. Fucking up in college was far worst tho. Took loans I didn't need at first then ended taking more loans because fasfa cut me off.

It's ok, most are gonna fall victim to this and not even be aware until it's too late. That's kinda how the system is set up

Funky ass cop just gave me a ticket for driving in the HOV lane on the way home from work. Not really expensive, but an excessive amount for a retarded law.

You should've bought a mannequin
 
a couple years back, i had $20 in my pocket but didn't feel like paying $6 for my train ticket. i buy a kid's ticket for $2 less, dude actually checks our tickets and id's for once, and i end up with a $400 dollar ticket.

i got an on campus suite my second year of college (way more expensive than the already overpriced dorms). got kicked out before the school year even started for smoking weed. i had to pay for the whole quarter (1300+ per month) on top of the bills/living expenses at the house i moved to while unemployed. the struggle was too real that quarter.

not investing in a failing company's stock from 1990 to 1992. Back of my head I kept saying "I should put my money on this shit", but instead I all but lived in titty bars and blew money on bullshit.

If I had bought it when I thought about it, the stock was at $.125 a share. If I had spent about $10K on it from 1990 to the summer of1992, I would have had 80K shares.

In October of 1992, the company announced a joint venture with IBM. The stock went from near penny-stock status to $13 a share overnight.

I would have made just over a million dollars... I KNEW it was gonna blow, but my ass kept bullshittin with my cash.
