As a practically single income family with two boys, age 10 and 8, I'm just fortunate enough to have a Corvette in the first place at this age. It wouldn't be modded if not for an annual work bonus and odd jobs with income solely for me instead of going to the house.

I have a new wife, a new 5 bedroom house, a newborn baby and just bought a baby mobile ( BMW 4WD ) as I have a C5 and a 335 twin turbo coupe, which aren't very family friendly.

Despite all that I've just added a rebuilt diff, replaced all the rear end seals, new hi stall, new trans cooler, replaced my front spoilers and bought some Corbeau Evolution X seats...

Ohhhh ....and a pram, highchair, cot and everything else a baby needs....

Here's a couple of pics of some of my other vices. Already did the kid thing, divorce thing, boats, dirt bikes and many other hobbies. Now mainly RC airplanes (have about 30) and just bought a $1200 84 C4 project (see thread here https://www.corvetteforum.com/forums...d-1200-c4.html ).
