Look, I am 20 and I got a very nice e32 from my parents when I was leaving college. I worked damn hard at school and I got a job that pays $70K a year. As soon as I start saving money I will buy a car for myself, but until then, my parents are free to give me what they can afford because it makes them happy.
NO WAY I could be seen driving a Geo Crap into the employee lot at Microsoft. Success is an art you obviously have never learned, or you'd have a better ride yourself, smart ass.
As far as my parents, if they think they can buy a couple more years of my gratitude by buying me stuff, it is NONE of your damn business.
We kids have more on the ball then you old farts ever did and we deserve anything we can get, so screw off and mind your own business.
One day, you will be in an old folks home and you'd better hope that you are well liked by the very youth you are attempting to condemn to shitty rice box cars like you would see us in. If that's all YOU can afford for your wife, so be it, but don't condemn others to your cast offs!

Instead, buy my wife's 97 GEO Prisim, 28.6k, air,auto, am/fm radio and rear defrost,...Period! Tell the little brat that until you see 3 consecutive semesters of 3.7 qpi's or better to not even THINK about the BMW! NADA retail= $8800, sell for $7200. Let me help make your kid a success! billr1100rs@webtv.net 570-342-6880
It really wouldn't be hard to forward this note to some of the old farts that run microsoft, just to give them some insight into one of their young employees. What an immature attitude. On the other hand the guy that started this must have known it was flame bait. Both pretty low class posts in my view. But its a rainy day so why not have a verbal shooting contest.
