Between my Harley, Playing Drums in a Band, and Remodeling my house I am going broke. But I am having fun all the way to the poor house!

The girl at the local Harley shop has my phone number memorized now.. She calls me enough to let me know that parts are in that she doesn't even have to look up my number anymore. That can't be a good sign... . I haven't gone broke yet, but I've stretched it damn thin a few times.

I'm trying to see if I can go broke before I die, that way the kids don't have to fight over the money they can fight over the bike, just so long as the wife goes first, couldn't stand the thought of some other guy riding my bike!

On my 4th new Harley over the last 12 years, so I stay broke!
Didn't even tell her I bought this one, why start an argument before the argument....

Knowledge is power and this forum has saved me money with all the 'How to DIY' mod's....they only way you'll go broke is if you lack the restraint to budget yourself.

I haven't gone broke because I can't, but if I could, I would. I see something every day here that I want. It ends about 10 seconds before you sell/trade your bike and starts again about 10 seconds after you pick up a new one.

About the time that I think that I'm broke the great Social Security Administration direct deposits more money into my account!
