some people just deserve a bishslapping.
If the coolest car at the school was a 325 stick, and now this kid was driving a frickin M3, he's gotta be a serious toolbag to do something like this.
greedy little pissers deserve to crawl to school.

This is a funny topic, because just yesteterday I was telling someone that the old days of just crashing your car, or reporting it stolen and collecting a big check are over. These insurance companies to big time investigations, etc now.

Honestly, if I have to get a new car, or some money buy crashing or burning my own car, then lying and cheating etc, I'll just keep the damn GS, seriously.

Is that supposed to be an admirable thing? give me a break, he's a spoiled rich kid who doesn't know the first thing about appreciating a nice life and the hard work it takes to get it. These stupid kids make me sick.

I just don't get why he just didn't sell the damn M3 and buy the Bentley. Then he would have avoided all that hassle.

That's just it......he doesn't have to appreciate the nice life, because it's all he knows.........hard work...he hasn't had to put in any....he's 17. He has no concept of any of this.

My sis is the same way.

I know plenty of these rich kids who understand and appreciate what an easy life they have and what hard work means. Just because they don't have to doesn't mean they can't.

What do you think, Jim? Apparantly you know the guy.

(You can PM me if you prefer to answer in private, for obvious reasons)
No I'll post it up, I got nothing to hide, I think he was extremely stupid for doing it. Like I said, it's been pulled off at the same school at least twice so he probably figured it could work for him too.

Our school was loaded with rich families (Microsoft, Boeing etc) and lots of kids who really didn't appreciate ***** that they had. The family is pretty influential so he really doesn't have anything to worry about. You guys have no idea how happy I am to get away from that area, school, people and all that. I wish they threw the book at him and all his conspirators.

With so many of these stories, I'd like to see how they truly end up. However, that will never be disclosed.
