stay here, work, buy things for your car while your young with mainly yourself to spend money on.

palestine will be there (Lord willing) when drifting isn't as exciting to you anymore :wink:

this is a hard choice. when i was younger if i had the chance to travel i would have. its a tuff choice cause it could swing both ways for you when your older. you may have more money to do drifting and less time to do traveling. good luck with the choice. think about it good though.

i think traveling is overrated.

you can travel when you're even 100 if you wanted to.

i doubt you'd be wanting to drift at that age.

if you ever got serious about drifting and wanted to stay a bachelor all your life, you may go pro and then travel the world. so you're doing both.

traveling doesn't pay bills but makes more bills.

then sometimes you get a foreign bug. blech. you end up not enjoying the rest of the trip.

traveling doesn't help you start your own business, or get a good paying job unless you plan on being a airline steward, stewardess, travel agent, etc. even travel agents haven't seen the world.

if it's just to say "i've seen palestine" or "i'm a well traveled 16 year old". so what. doesn't make me find you any more or less interesting. i have tv :D and the internet.

i don't understand the hype behind "traveling". most people barely even know the backroads to their own town, city or state. there are enough strange people in your own neighborhood but noone gets to know them and their "strange" ways.

anyway...the most important thing is not to be indecisive. the biggest contributor to that is worrying about what you'll miss behind the door you didn't open. you can't experience everything. people aren't suppose to. that's why we can only be in one place at a time. you're always going to miss something.

choose wisely.

i made my choice to stay here. and not as in Palestine Texas like Israel before Zionists stole it and renamed it Israel. my mom and dad think drifting is a joke and i get little to no support really they keep saying oh its just a hobby when yet i haven't even been to 1 event. i am serious about it and it's like the one thing that fascinates me so i made my choice to stay here and hopefully build my car and make it out to as many events as i can.

just in case, i'd like to head off any anti-semitism that might pop up in this particular thread.
