Large Unexpected Costs

Well, I have gotten into two accidents with the same car this week, four days apart. Whose car? My car. The cost to fix is a bitch for me whom has no job at the moment.

Ever had to pay a large amount of money for something you were totally unprepared for?

I had to pay $100 for when my xbox red ringed the day Halo 3 came out.

Not really expensive but was definitely unexpected.

My water heater broke a few weeks back. I didn't have hot water for about five days.

My heater also broke down last year, during winter.

Yea. Me not getting the job that was promised to me 700 miles away and finding out I didn't get it after I moved in.

Luckily someone carried me around for a few months before I got a job <_<
Money was still really tight though

But right now I have a bunch of car repairs myself.
Ran over an asphalt alligator, need to replace my break pads, my shocks need looked at and tires replaced.

No, because I'm a spoiled person that get his parents to pay for everything expensive.

Only thing that comes to mind is when i crashed my car, there's probably other things to that im forgetting though.

Nope, I'm Jewish. So, I try to be as mindful as possible about how much money I will be spending in most situations.

I was at a gentleman's establishment on a bored day. My friends and I were students so came with the intention of not paying anything extra b/c we were poor. However my dumbass friend couldn't say no to the pushy "entertainers" who wanted us to pay for lab dances.

I ended up having to for all three of us b/c they didn't have money on them. I literally had to count the bunch of "ones" I had in my wallet to pay for all three of us.

It was embarrassing, and the dumbass friend who couldn't refuse got the best looking chick by the name of "destiny" . My chick was butt ugly and in fact made me go limp. 4 years later, he still occasionally rubs it in by recounting the story about how I had count "ones" to pay, and him getting the best looking chick......

Why can't you just admit that you hit a skin bar with some friends, they were broke as fuck, you had to pay, and you got the "Tuesday night" stripper.

If I was in your place, I would've walked out and left those broke mother fuckers. The only time someone else gets a better lap dance than the one that's paying is on birthdays. That's all there is to that.

My xbox red ringed about a week ago, someone told me they will fix it for free for 3 years is that true? :S

Super typhoon hits us pretty hard. Well you know how much damage that would cost.

I've heard similar. I don't know about three years, though.

1st of all, this stories isn't supposed to be something serious. I wrote it in a humorous and long winded way to elicit a laugh. It was a snafu, but its one things that we look back at with a smile and recount when get together.

2nd of all, I don't leave my friends out to dry even if they did something stupid. The reason why we are still friends after all these years is b/c I have their backs and they have mine.

3rd point is, you should know when you get group lap dances like that, who you get is random. With the protective enforcers looking on to make sure you don't violate the rules like no touching, it is usually prudent not to offend their prized employees by implying one of them isn't good enough to give you a labdance.

if its been 3 years since you bought it then your Fked but if it hasn't been 3 years you still have a warranty that lets you get a new one each and every time you get the rrod(red ring of death) you only have to call their customer service(1-800-4my-xbox(1-800-469-9269) and send your Xbox if your lucky they will give you a month of xbox live gold for free(BTW it might take 2 weeks or even a month before you get your xbox back)

I think my warranty was only 1 year :/ I have had my xbox for two.

Pretty sure the 3 year warranty is for ALL xbox360's. You could try calling at least, better to try and maybe get a new one for free then paying right?

heh yea :P I will call tomorrow and find out.

Recently, the starter in my car broked, which was itself a $300 fix, but then it cost me an extra $350 because I'm an idiot. I wanted to save some money by fixing it myself, but through a long and annoying series of events, it ended up in a supermarket parking lot for too long and got towed. So I had the towing fees and the impound fees on top of the cost to actually fix it.
I also need new tires and a suspension replacement.
Car isn't even worth that much, but I really couldn't find a better one that I could afford.

busted for curfew and fined $360, that was pretty unexepected

Damnn. Curfews suck.
