economy changing your plans?

[toofast306]

To answer the question, no, the economy has not changed my plans. Case in point:
Bell housing adapter plate $276
Flywheel, clutch and miscellaneous stuff $1202
Now I need to hang out in 'murica for the weekend to avoid duties. More $$$
I decided to stay on this side of the border for my turbo needs ($600+)
F'n ouch.

That's a stupid thing to say. You wish for cost of life increases?

Best is when ppl are like wow you are lucky now..
yet i always pay tolls daily back and forth and gas and wear and tear... when its high ppl think i am richer.. (i am slightly) but in the end gov't takes it all back some way or another but it allows me to put more away in USD exchange less to pay bills and just bank it till a rainy day

So if your salary is $100,000.00 USD, you got a pay raise to $140,000.00 CAN. Sweet.....

The CAD is done for a few years. Looks like the middle east is trying to take us into the stone age (feels like it).

yea.. but too bad i pay tax here in canada..
doesnt just work that way..
basically if you are paid 100k USD yes you make 140k canadian..
but when its tax time gov't makes up some exchange rate.. and looks to see if you paid enough.. usually you have to dump rrsp to balance out.

I eat lots of fruit

and the price of fruit right now is making my eyes bug out.....$11.49 for 5 fucking honey crisp apples

I normally didn't look or care about the price of fruit

I'm looking now

We drive out to a place in Wicklow, ON ,Knights Apples, it's a whole sale place where they do grading and storage & buy bushels of apples , C grade, as my dog eats them, nothing wrong with them , they are just not perfect for the grocery store , 99 % of them are irregular skins etc, just not perfectly round, depending on the apple type , 1/2 bushel of Courtland are $10 -12 , full bushel of Mac's are $22 , even the "A" perfect ones are $35 for a full bushel, & they keep perfect in my garage ! & the quality is much better than grocery store one that have been shipped from god only know where and banged around ! it just a nice cruise about an hour outside of Ajax !
