my landlord charged me double that to replace a door i tore down on the house last month because i was locked out and had shit on the stove. he also took 2 weeks to do it and when i complained he got very aggressive with me

anyways, random car accidents, worst was like $1000 (i got scammed by a police officer using a shady autobody shop, they lied/conspired to run up the cost on me, was probably only a $500 damage)

Bought a 2009 Mitsubishi Eclipse GT at 12% APR when I was 19

Payments were about $400 a month, insurance was about $230 a month, and it took premium fuel which at the time was well over $4/gallon and it got horrible fuel economy with a fairly large fuel tank so I was dropping like $80 a week on gas

I was able to sell it a couple years later for just enough to pay off the loan and buy a $400 1987 Toyota Camry that was basically falling apart but still drove, and I felt so fucking good driving that thing in comparison lol

Renting for so damn long.
Could've gotten a house w/ some short term pain like a decade ago, certainly 5 years ago... and would've spent literally HALF what I had to in order to become a homeowner now.

I don't even want to think how far back I set myself financially. Hundreds of thousands of dollars easily, especially since my rent that entire time was really fucking high and basically turns into lost money.

"What if I don't stay in this job and want to move?"
"I don't want to have a starter home and upgrade later, I want my forever home when I get a house."
God, younger me was so foolish...
