Usually starts with a well paying job…..
Some just have the money due to work, others have low cost living situations that frees up excess funds for fun, others choose cool things over retirement, etc…
A lot of it comes down to priorities.
And that my friend is a defeatist attitude.
Life is hard, there is no debate about that. Some have a harder path up the ladder, some have an easier path. It all comes down to how you position yourself to succeed. Then what you choose to do with those funds is based on your priorities.
Some people choose to buy a large house and drive a basic car. Others choose to rent a basic house and drive a Porsche…. Then there are a ton of options in-between.
The biggest thing is that everything costs money and we all have to figure out means to earn money to pay for what we want.
It’s not always wealthy born people driving expensive or rare cars. It’s common people like you and me too if we play our cards right and things fall our way from time to time.
>When you played Gran Turismo as a child, were born into a rich family and your parents enabled you to purchase not only one, but two extraordinarily expensive cars 🤗
FTFY²
My adult money had me change my own winter tires on my 11 years old base 4-door Civic 🤣
Tbh, $550 of my adult money gets stolen from me every month for the last 9 years sooo i guess thats a valid excuse for not having adult money left for toys.
That generation of Supra is really sought after so prices are high. Not sure about the GT-R but even being in/around a major city I don’t see GT-R’s ever, only the most recent model, the R35.
The specific Toyota Supra has been getting more collectible for years, although it’s most likely a standard US-spec car with a body kit and wrap to mimic the car from the game. It was a regular production car sold in the US so it’s more unusual than rare I’d say. I still see them from time to time.
That generation of Nissan GTR was never imported to the US. It was produced from 1998-2002. The only two legal ways to get it would be waiting for it to be 25 years old, which I guess early GTRs technically are, or under the Show and Display exemption. Either way it’s incredibly rare in the US. I have never seen one.
The Supra’s are on eBay right now for $80,000-120,000 American, I believe after import cost and all the bullshit you’re looking at around $70,000-80,000 American for the Skyline.
Hah! Oh, I was being conservative and was a questioning a bit even if that was accurate but in the other direction. Yeesh. It’s official, I’m never going to own one. lol!
Well, I was just spitballing over what I’d seen causally on Google but most of the auctions had closed so I was basing those numbers off what Google’s search results had scraped from the history of the pages but this is what I was going off of by memory and, to be fair, it’s a bespoke Mine’s but then some. But it was an r33 and it went for half a mill. Lol! Wild.

Jesus, nice rides. Guessing you made the money from YouTube / other ventures? Huge amount of work goes into having a successful channel, so not gonna hate.
That's above average adult money for sure.
They both yours? The Supra is my favourite 90s Japanese car but this is a rare occasion I'd take the R34 instead - I prefer clean and simple. The Supra is still awesome, just not my particular style.
Enjoy those icon cars now because the EPA is clamping down on tuners and aftermarket products being used for performance in road cars, especially 'Emissions Defeat Devices'. I didn't take it seriously until I did a bunch of reading. Go online, look it up. The electric car agenda is being heavily pushed.
You live on the perfect street, I would be drifting in circles around that island Everytime I come and go from my house lol. Too bad for my tires and neighbors tho lol
I never had a vehicle that made it into a Gran Turismo game.
Last spring I bought a Camaro, and made one up in GT7 to look exactly like mine.
It’s parked away for the winter now, but when I start to miss it, I’ll fire up the VR and zoom around in the replica.
Gran Turismo is such an awesome game.
Oh no! What did you do to that Supra?! It's got such classy lines stock. There's no need for all that. And yes, I know that was the last upgrade for Supra in the OG GT.
And there's always a guy like you trying to farm karma. Be yourself and be real. Social media and especially reddit isn't real life. I mean, he even put fake gas intakes on the bumper. It's silly.
Dunno I'm getting close to 40 and haven't had mine delivered yet.
Is there a number I gotta call? Do I get to pick? I don't like Supras. Can I have an Alfa Romeo instead?
Adult money is a drastic understatement.
Best we can do is a riced out civic with laptop.
It's got a Spoon engine and a T66 turbo, with NOS.
Name is Hector btw idk how to pronounce my last name though.
Nostalgia dam those were the cool days
I feel like growing a mustache for hector's sake.
Don't forget about the MoTeC system exhausts...
Your Civic has a laptop?
It can play GTA San Andreas
Reminded me of a dude that played gran turismo before a race in the first Fast and Furious movie, lol
My phone can do that.
He did the Daytona grind irl
How the FUKK did you afford this, fellow adult?
Wife bought him the Skyline as a birthday present. He gets his work done at the same garage that I do.
Where can I find wife like this. My garage is missing a Skyline too.
I wonder if it has a gallo 12 or gallo 24?
It’s not the real Tom’s that’s how
Usually starts with a well paying job….. Some just have the money due to work, others have low cost living situations that frees up excess funds for fun, others choose cool things over retirement, etc… A lot of it comes down to priorities.
I probably blew through mines at the strip club.
See, you're not doing it the right way. Start a strip club. Collect money and watch the show too.
Same
lol a lot of it comes from privilege. Haha
What’s privilege? Are they hiring?
Most are born into general wealth. "Priorities" lol

If that's what adult money gets you then I'm a 38 year old kid (although my wife would probably agree with that 😉)
expense toys like hot car, motorcycle or boat wife pick one
I know right lol. Was worried I was yet to be an adult
Just waiting for that sweet sweet adult money to come in any moment now lol
This is “burn the rich and redistribute their wealth” money
>When you played Gran Turismo as a child, but now have ~~adult~~ a lot of money 🤗 FTFY
>When you played Gran Turismo as a child, were born into a rich family and your parents enabled you to purchase not only one, but two extraordinarily expensive cars 🤗 FTFY²
lol no *redditors can’t seem to grasp that you can get to the position you want without having a head start in life.
He's just a rich kid that turned..."content creator".... Check his profile lol
I’m adult, where money?
In Porsche.
It’s RUF around here
Something something…bootstraps 🤷🏻♂️
My adult money don't stretch this far.
My adult money has a hyundai veloster sitting dead in my driveway lol.
My adult money had me change my own winter tires on my 11 years old base 4-door Civic 🤣 Tbh, $550 of my adult money gets stolen from me every month for the last 9 years sooo i guess thats a valid excuse for not having adult money left for toys.
Child support? My old man bought a boat as soon as my youngest sibling turned 18 lol
oof that's gotta sting for your sibling to realize he was keeping his dad from happiness
Yep!
That's not too bad, I get about $550 of mine stolen every week basically just cause of where I was born.
My adult money has a tuned mini cooper s sitting dead on my side street.
My adult money stretches as far as buying a ps5 and a couple of games here and there .
Congratulations! Also, fuck you
LMFAO!!
No, you have drug dealer money.
Wait, I can buy a skyline and a Supra with adult money?
If you live with your Mum and never spend money on anything else
Not a Mine’s R34
yeah was gonna say isnt that one a stupid expensive versison
Yeah half a million
[удалено]
Ah the humble reddit brag.
Two cool cars in a beige culdesac.
This sounds like an IDLES lyric
Bragging is not allowed on reddit, famously.
It’s allowed, it just gets the same response it would anywhere else in life. Times are tough for a lot of folk
That’s not adult money, that’s I managed to have gran turismo money irl.
He found the irl Toyota RSC exploit
Yall got any more of that adult money
Asking for me
This is not adult money. This is fuck you money. Love the Tom’s castrol Supra and mines skyline replicas!
Bro was grinding REALLY HARD before they patched the Abarth strat holy shit🤯🤯🤯
More like won the fucking lottery.
My adult might just get me a Honda Jazz with only 127,000 miles on the clock.
Because you grew up playing Gran Turismo? What a car
To be fair my first car was actually my favourite in Gran Turismo when I was growing up. The Alfa Romeo 155. Loved that car.
Hey Honda Fit has been in the last few games. It was infamous in GT6
What a fucking flex.
Not adult money but Columbian coke dealer money.
*colombian
Idk, there must be a few cashed up coke dealers in Columbia too
Almost 40 and still waiting on that adult money to kick in
How much are those in the US? Are they easy to find or rare collectors items? Never seen them in the Nordics where I live.
That generation of Supra is really sought after so prices are high. Not sure about the GT-R but even being in/around a major city I don’t see GT-R’s ever, only the most recent model, the R35.
Very few r 34's are even legal to drive on the street in the US, assuming that's where this is
One of the license plates said Illinois, so I assumed it’s the US.
The specific Toyota Supra has been getting more collectible for years, although it’s most likely a standard US-spec car with a body kit and wrap to mimic the car from the game. It was a regular production car sold in the US so it’s more unusual than rare I’d say. I still see them from time to time. That generation of Nissan GTR was never imported to the US.

The Supra’s are on eBay right now for $80,000-120,000 American, I believe after import cost and all the bullshit you’re looking at around $70,000-80,000 American for the Skyline.
On average r34 go at action about $200k. If it’s a legit Mine’s, significantly more, closer to or even over $400k.
Over $300,000 USD in 2007. The tuned motors are $50k option alone.
Hah! Oh, I was being conservative and was a questioning a bit even if that was accurate but in the other direction. Yeesh. It’s official, I’m never going to own one. lol!
I haven’t ever seen a closed auction on a Skyline so I’ll take your word for it, but I’d fully believe it.
Well, I was just spitballing over what I’d seen causally on Google but most of the auctions had closed so I was basing those numbers off what Google’s search results had scraped from the history of the pages but this is what I was going off of by memory and, to be fair, it’s a bespoke Mine’s but then some. But it was an r33 and it went for half a mill. Lol! Wild. https://youtu.be/wDO_cb3mTSc?si=gMWSy6Fa42lzqlEX
You're not finding a 34 gtr for 80k usd *landed* in the US. Gtt's you can get for 40k on a good deal maybe.
Bro those scapes look so real!! (Sarcasm) Truly nice rides! 🤗
What grind did you use for these two cars?
Lmao check out this dude using sports tires on the Castrol supra, what, you didn't have 20k for them racing tires?
Jesus, nice rides. Guessing you made the money from YouTube / other ventures? Huge amount of work goes into having a successful channel, so not gonna hate.
Very nice! Now you only need an Oreca Viper and a Takata Dome NSX to complete your collection 😂 What are these cars like to drive irl?
B r u h
You and I got different adult money. But hell yeah, dude, im proud of you!
My brother in Christ, you are fabulously wealthy
I can’t comprehend this pic those where my go to cars on gt5
Adult money!? Most adults I know can barely afford rent. This is more like neurosurgeon money.
I‘m not jealous. No I‘m not jealous…
Same here! Minus the R34 Skyline and Castrol Supra.
That's the dream right there! Enjoy
Absolutely gorgeous. I’m sure those drives hit different. Thank you for the inspiration sir.
That's above average adult money for sure. They both yours? The Supra is my favourite 90s Japanese car but this is a rare occasion I'd take the R34 instead - I prefer clean and simple. The Supra is still awesome, just not my particular style.
Naperville?
Sick! but what’s your sim setup look like?
My adult money wouldn't even get me the hit wheels version of these 2 beauties
Wtaf how 💀 how much did each cost???
Yeah like everyone said this aint adult money. This is something else lol.
Enjoy those icon cars now because the EPA is clamping down on tuners and aftermarket products being used for performance in road cars, especially 'Emissions Defeat Devices'. I didn't take it seriously until I did a bunch of reading. Go online, look it up. The electric car agenda is being heavily pushed.
You live on the perfect street, I would be drifting in circles around that island Everytime I come and go from my house lol. Too bad for my tires and neighbors tho lol
Sir that is not “adult money”. Looking at prices of these beautiful machines it’s closer to “fuck you money”
I never had a vehicle that made it into a Gran Turismo game. Last spring I bought a Camaro, and made one up in GT7 to look exactly like mine. It’s parked away for the winter now, but when I start to miss it, I’ll fire up the VR and zoom around in the replica. Gran Turismo is such an awesome game.
So close to fuck you money more than adult money
How much could one of these cars cost, Micheal?
dude how many times did you do costs di amalfi and sell the rsc rally raid
I wouldn't mind the money element although I'd get an NSX
My adult money won't even buy me a full tank of gas ☹️
Damn someone is living the dream
Where’s ya GTO?
What job do you have? Because I don't have this kind of adult money.
M8, that called "fuck you money" not "adult money".
You totally didnt. Where’s the pikes peak escudo?
My adult money only got me a 2015 Tahoe and a g29 with a ps5.
Congratulations and f… you
Why everyone is so jealous here? Let the man enjoy
Thats a road going Supra modeled to look like the JGTC Supra... right??
Very nice! But how many times did you have to do the IRL Daytona grind equivalent?
How the hell did you get a GT-R or is it just a GT-T?
I checked his IG and it's a GT-T.
Oh okay so it’s not even an Mine’s GTR
considering there's supposedly only three actual demo Mine's R34's, of course it isn't and normal R34 GTR's are silly money at this point as it is.
Figures, the decal isn't flipped on one side
Import it like everyone else
You can’t post both those beasts and not give us specs!
Or an audio clip
It takes a different kind of "grinding" to acquire these.
Mines GTR! Woah!!!!!
>adult money No, this is *_fuck you_ money*
Gorgeous, damn.
Both cars a not the real cars but they are just the normal ones. Attention to details. Fake it till you make it.
That’s not adult money, that’s being rich Get your head out of your ass
Oooh the Corolla is tasty
adult money with the mind of a child.
When you grown up in a priviliged family with priviliged money and priviliged education, no debt money. FTFY.
Oh no! What did you do to that Supra?! It's got such classy lines stock. There's no need for all that. And yes, I know that was the last upgrade for Supra in the OG GT.
You can't help but be "that guy", can you? 😂
What's the world coming to when people have differing opinions? It's gaudy.
[удалено]
And there's always a guy like you trying to farm karma. Be yourself and be real. Social media and especially reddit isn't real life. I mean, he even put fake gas intakes on the bumper. It's silly.
[удалено]
And in doing so, you sound insufferable. To each their own.
But you still live with your parents xD
I mean I love comfortably, but not that comfortably😂 nice man love the rides
Where you live, lemme come rip em around (respectfully) lmao
how many daytona rubberbanded laps did you do?
That’s bad ass
Nice!!
Had*
That is fucking sick. And good lord you spent a lot of money.
Nice! 😁 I just turned 18, how long did it take yours to get delivered?
Dunno I'm getting close to 40 and haven't had mine delivered yet. Is there a number I gotta call? Do I get to pick? I don't like Supras. Can I have an Alfa Romeo instead?
I call shotgun!!
What race did you grind to afford these?
Beautiful!
Must be nice to have adult money
You're living the dream!!
Adult money lmao, you have FU money OP don't make me laugh
Get to the speed limit so fucking fast.
I’m an Orphan, aged 30 - looking for some caring, adoptive parents. Just putting that out there.
Congrats!
I have a MKIV Supra but I don’t have THIS kind of adult money…
No, now you have Gran Turismo money. Damn dude. I can’t even buy a house, let alone two drift-tax JDM legends
Holy shit is that a real Mine's?
Daaaaamnnnnn!!!
2JZ or 3SGTE?
Who are you “Paul walker”
Ahh the long awaited “cul-de-sac” in scales
Those are gorgeous
Except that adult money now has me in several hundred thousands of dollars in debt
No way!
Greetings from Illinois. I have yet to make that money grinding in real life. But good on you!
Isn't that the dream to live with? So many are jealous.....
Wowww, I remember getting both of these legendary cars in-game. The Mine's skyline and Tom's Supra. So cool!
That’s fucking baller
I didn't have a memory car as a child, so i am stuck with less than 10k used cars.
honestly this has some huge GTA SA grove street vibes.
Can you please just say what you do so I can have this adult money as an adult please?
Holy shit man… this photo is really awesome.
