So I'm sitting playing dominos with my 11yo daughter and I realize that I am playing a fairly difficult game to understand (depending on the rules you play by) WITH MY KID! Then I started thinking about all the other stuff going on in my life and I realized I am "all grown up". I will be 30 here is a couple days and my main concerns in life have gone from how cool of a ride can I roll to actually thinking about my future. So my questions are how old are you and how about your kids? and other than gettin laid what are your main concerns in life at this time?

Getting older is some thing i try not thinking about. I'll be 27 this year and got two boys age 2. Besides my family i enjoy nothing more than fixing up my rides. Now with my family its all about taking care of them, so less money and less time for things i like. My boyz love the air ride and the truck, Most choices are made with them in mind. I,m thinking i got 2 future minitruckers on my hands.......

I started feeling old when the music I use to listen to is now considered classics. I'm 35 y/o but most the time I feel I still haven't grown up. I'm just getting older. Age is only in your mind. You are only as old as you believe yourself to be. You have young people dying everyday. Life is too damn short to worry about how old you are. I don't have any kids (none that i know about anyway ). And my main concerns in life are...well... It pretty much boils down to Fuck The World. I'm having fun

I'm only 24 but life is starting to hit me hard. I recently proposed to my girlfriend, now she's gettin crazy with the wedding planning, so paying for it is a concern. Plus we want to buy a house, we live in the Bay Area of California, which is one of the most expensive area's to live in, in the whole country! My other concern is trying to move up in my company so I can start a family and not live hand to mouth. Plus getting the Weekend Warrior done by SEMA doesn't help much.

^^^ 25 was for some reason my favorite age so hang in there. only a year away. Anyway, good luck with all that. A few tips on the wedding planning is don't get to "INTO" it. My wife got to the point where she almost said fuck it and go do the Justice Peace thing due to all the disappointments. Take your time with wedding. No need to rush things.

I'm 27 now, my daughter is 3 weeks old, and I'm still trying to get used to the thought of having someone totally dependant on me. Its amazing how everything goes on hold, including my poor truck.

Well I guess I'm the youngest so far at age 21 (22 in a month) but I had to grow up real quick, alot more than my other friends. I became a father at age 17, and now she'll be 5 in September. Luckily I just had my last day of college yesterday and graduate Saturday but I only get one year out of school before my daughter has to go to kindergarten. Kinda depressing.. but I think I can relate to ya guys cuz 4 years have just past so quick its unbelievable. I just hope I can have more time for my family now that I'm outta school and start saving for a house while fixin my new project.

I hear ya man, I had my firs daughter at 18 and didn't have the chance to go to college because of my "mistake". But things are cool because my kids will probably be gone before I'm 45 so I will time to "live life". Plus man think ahead you will be the cool dad because you are younger and you will also be the cool grandpa and be able to have a good relationship with your grandkids. The only reason I am into custom cars and trucks is because of my grandpa, I don't want to get old quick but I am kinda looking forward to having grandkids, WOW DID I JUST THINK THAT? WTF I just had another getting old moment. If I could give you any advice (if you want some) it would be to keep your relationship good with your woman, mine has been rocky and it's been hard on the kids, if you have to break from her do it clean for the kid.
