im not calling you out cuz e-fights are gay.... thats only half true dude my parents would always pay for my skiing when i was little, when i turned 14 i started paying for half the ticket, when i was 15 i bought a season pass and my skis, at 16 i bought a car so i could drive myself to the mtn, now that im 17 im still buying everything that has to do with skiing but it definitly wouldnt have happened if my parents didnt pay for my stuff til i was 14, oh and i know plenty of poor kids who ski they just have jobs, especially my friends in college they are broke as shit but they still ski on their own money
