http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/West_IndiesThe Caribbean is referred to as "the Indies" and inhabitants from India as "East Indians"; therefore, to elminate confusion the Caribbean is also referred to as "the West Indies"

My mom paid for my 2nd car, I want to say I paid for some of it as well. I paid for my first. She paid for my fifth car but I paid her back. After I was 17 I pretty much paid for everything else. I think I stayed with her a month or 2 before I moved to PA. I paid for all my schooling and I think my dad gave me like $50 my first semester AFTER someone stole all my books. Then they bought me a laptop a few years later, but I don't think it was for me 'originally'. I think they just had an extra one.

I'm glad to see that so many of you had somewhat responsible and capable parents
I'm not angry at my parents for providing nearly nothing because they're my biggest inspiration for the financial decisions that I make today

Was that for me? If so, Haiti on my father's side, Guadeloupe on my mother's side. |
Yes. Thanks. Sometimes I feel so ignorant. I wouldn't have guessed that.

My parents took care of my major NEEDS/expenses for the majority of college. Tuition after grants/scholarships, and rent. I had to take out loans for my last year.
I got a car with my own money after I started working. I begged for one all through college but honestly getting one on my own was the best feeling.
