set your priorities and work your way from #1 down.

when I was going to college I couldn't afford a new car so I shared a used one w/ my brothers and for the most part caught the bus to UH.

for me having a nice car and the money to mod it was low on my priority list not because I didn't want to do it but because other things were more important. you need to figure out what's important to you.
