Tell him you're going to spend your money on one of two things -

1.) Large amounts of blow

2.) Car audio

My parents used ot be the same way. "Why doesn't the stock sound system satisfy you?"

I ended up just not listening to them. Life's about doing what you wanna do...and you only live one ****ing time.

I say...if it makes you happy..do it...if it pisses other people off or gets them in a bad mood....****'em....and I take this approach with anything..

Also save up and buy the high end sh*t the first time around rather than having half a dozen sh*tty set-ups before you get to something decent.

your dad is just looking out for you

now that i look back i spent alot on car audio

when i got paid it used to all go to savings for more dbz

i prob could have bought a decent car with the aont of money i spent from when i was 15-18

anyways,buy the audio stuff yourself and keep up with whatever other bills you have

show your dad you can manage your money

my dad was the same way when i was younger

yeah thats a good idea, i just gotta go against him at 1st but then show him i can pay for everything and still have my hobby... he may be a little biased because hes GM at a car dealership?

only 200 bucks a week? Thats good money. Go buy everything you want. Ur still in high school so what else are you gonna buy. Buy some w7's or something, pretty soon youll have a pro system. And we will all hate you........... just kidding!

It's your money, you working to make the money. So you can do what you want with it.
