Would you believe me if I told you that Youtube started in 2005?

And, yeah, since its invention, Youtube has at least saved me my cable/internet bill since 2005, just in DIY projects.

I generally spend money on something stupid every month. This month it was a new top of the line rod and reel and I'll likely buy a new .22 rifle tomorrow.

Yeah but that's just spoiling yourself money. Think we're talking about the unexpected punch in the dick expense.

I am 25, not married, no kids, car is doing ok, live in an apartment.

I’d say most months I don’t have any surprise expenses, but I make up for it with a gambling’s addiction and eating out every meal

Hey jackwagon, it's a $500,000 house and the AC on the living side of the house is the one that is broken. The sleeping quarters are cool as a cucumber.

I don't often have surprise big expenses, but I have what seems like a lot of big expenses that aren't part of my monthly plan such as insurance, car taxes, property taxes, etc.

Now this sounds like a stable marriage.

It won't be anything close to what she will cost you once she's driving age. She will seduce you in a daughterly way to buy her a car, pay for her insurance and any maintenance associated with it. Paying for her gas will be the cheapest thing about it.

Oh yeah, on the buying a car deal, you will want to buy her a new one because you will feel safer for her in a new car.

Not necessary. She will wreck whatever it is.
