My advice was buy shitty graco from Walmart. Get the shitty graco stroller and the shitty graco bases and you are set.

That's what I did...workin' out so far.

Don't ever under any circumstances let your child (daughter) near a barn nor horse.....If you do kiss your extra money goodbye

LOL.
Worked with a guy almost a decade ago that said the exact same thing and why he tries not to have people come over to his acreage with their kids.

For what it's worth, all-in, we pay a similar monthly amount for our son's hockey during the active season.

Recreation is expensive, yo.

True dat!

For Lotoski it's paid off forever with like 1/5 of a house sale

Hahaha, welcome to the beginning of what's going to be a very long financial nightmare

I started that way as well...Now I own a beast of a show jumping horse that costs more then alot of luxury cars, My monthly board and vet bills run about 2k a month- that does include her trainer though

Keeps her out of trouble, but its pricey

[killramos]

I think trouble would be cheaper…

Take a good look boys and run

haha lets assume it cost me 30k a year for the house- after tax dollars

she gets into some trouble once over 5 years that costs me 50k

5x30k= 150,000 - trouble @ 50k = 100k Up

Up trouble is cheaper

I know someone who claims to enjoy owning horses. He owns a boat at one of his vacation properties that cost more than my house.
I know another person who owns a horse. I think she is literally on AISH.

Help spot the idiot.

[ExtraSlow]

If my kids start talking about horses I'm just going to get them into crime.

[killramos]

Yea most people I know with horses are hilariously insolvent.

The common denominator is obvious.

I’ll look into the Diono.

As long as it is t so massive as to make the front passenger seat useless I am pretty open minded.

We have a Clek Foonf and Fllo. Canadian-made, heavy-duty/overkill, stylish, etc. They are having 15% off Black Friday right now on some styles.

We've entered a new phase now at 15 months where he'll just scream bloody murder if he doesn't get his own way.

Decided now that he doesn't want to sleep, so when he gets put in his bed it's literal top of the lungs screaming for 20 mins before he nods off

So that's awesome

Wish he would take a broom haha! He uses the fly swatter and tries to beat the cat up with it

I've let the cat react and bite him and he just laughs at it...sadistic little shit
