yes I did... but I am lucky- I rub myself for luck every day


Matt , its all exciting new bike etc.. but take it from me

it wears off.. and fact hits home mate..

its a lot of money over a looong time.. and it WILL hit you..

every month..
christmas time.. still got to be paid..

in a few years you and Maria may be married and then kids.. and you be committed to a £££ expense each month that could contribute to rent/mortgage..

do a little projection..


best advice.. speak to your dad - believe me- they been there and done it and it aint til you get old like me you realise they know what they on about them dads.


whatever you decide.. good luck
