Live and learn with experiences like that. Don't forget it.

Remember them well. Your mom and dad was the only people out there who watch over you. And then a wife or companion if your lucky enough they can foresee such silliness and advise well in advance.

Don't finance toys ever.Unless you have those funds making way more then finance charges. And if that's so, let me know. I have some extra cash laying around for you to invest for me ..

Down 13.000 euro now and sold the sporty to pay back a loan bikeless feels like soulless to me
I ain't got a clue as to what I would do short of a stupid attack. Loose it

If you are acquainted well enough your usual dealer might be of some guidance wading through this cesspool you stumbled into

Good Lord best of luck WP
