Well I don't know if they would let me open an account without parental permission. The only reason my account is attached to hers is she had an extra, empty account so I took it when I got my job.

But ya for sure I'll let you try putting my wheels on, as long as you help me clean the insides on them all haha.

But really I can do that on my own, so just call me or pm me when you want to meet up

I'm assuming by the fact your driving your older than 16, so yes you can.

I do have free banking right now. All my money is in my moms chequing account, which is under my name now and I have a debit card to it. But I want to open another, separate account just for paypal, so if I get hacked, my money, and my moms is not at risk. I'll go tomorrow and set it up

PP accounts do not get "hacked"... well unless you somehow do something fantabulously stupid...

The Canadian banking system is safer than the USA system too...

I was only recommending your make your own account to get off the teet... but I said that already;
here, how about a visual;

Assuming you don't lose it, credit cards are 'safer' anyway because you're technically not losing the money right away (since you pay for it at the end of the month) so if someone gets a hold of it and goes mad with it..... Visa ***** bricks because it's THEIR money so its in their interest to call you right away and find out wtf is going on. Not going to happen with a debit card, you could get cleaned out and be completely out of luck.

So just go to a bank and setup an account. I remember I made mine with RBC on my 13th birthday, and they give you $5 for starting an account with them. I was so pumped.

I couldn't agree more... I know I'm out of shape, so after finding out two weeks ago that I tire myself out wayyyy too quickly on my bike, I went for a 2(+/-) hour walk last night...

I should do that more often instead of watching TV... then after a bit, I'll go back to my beloved gargantuan after-work bike rides...

those can be tricky to get...

I didn't get my first credit card till I was 22 or 23... even then, I was denied for the first couple I applied for, then had a sit down with someone at my bank, and they helped me out...
Credit is a tricky thing;
you have to have it to get good credit, but if you don't have any rating, it's tough to start out... (no, I never applied for one while I was in school, because I'm the type who doesn't buy what I cannot afford)...

Ok, changing the subject a smidge.....



What do you guys (and gals) think about meeting up at the Deerfoot Meadows TH's this saturday evening;
I got a message from Kasper, who said he was free for saturday...

7pm??

Anyone game?

if you're shooting for a 16.5, you probably will not be disappointed...

(if you pull significantly slower e/t's, it's likely driver error...)
