Math was never my strong point....
Somehow I understand the theory about having an extra $600 at the end for parts.
That money doesnt really exist because it's not in the bank account.
It will look so much better as parts on the car anyhow.

My parents take me, give me $20, and tell me to go play the slots.
I start out by putting $5 into the machines. I'm playing for about an hour on the nickel and penny slots with that $5, until it finally runs out.
I got bored, and so I told my parents I was going out to sleep in the car (we went at 4 am to avoid the Asian tour bus groups that come in, and I'd been up late the night before). My parents come out about 2 hours later, and go, "So, are you coming away with anything?"
"Yep, I've still got $15 of the $20 that you gave me, so I'm up $15!"
They won't take me to the casinos anymore unless I bring my own money.
