I guess its just a rich person mind set to not give a shit about spending money that you shouldnt have to

But it is still an entitled mindset (2.5k a month, you are not poor). I mean, you don't really have to replace retainers. It is not like food or life-saving medication, wherein the continued absence of it will cause you to die.

Anyways I would ask if he could help you out first (the way you approach this is important), then pay for yourself. Going directly to his dad may cause issues unless you know them well.

*actually, if he is okay paying $650 a month for you guys, it probably wont be too difficult to explain a one time increase of $300, and offer to return it later when you have money.

I get where you coming from..
But, it isnt an option. My mom spent thousands of dollars for my Braces, it would be retarded to not get a new retainer just because of a stupid lil dog and $300 (<3 the dog though).

I'm tight with the whole family could go to anyone but would be better to talk to my bro first about it.

i was actually thinking of something like... his dad pay $300.. Then ill add $50 on my rent check for 3 months..

I think the above is a fair compromise

you're in the wrong for leaving important shit out in the open where the dog can get it. It's not that hard to put the thing in your drawer or high on a shelf.




Your looking to far into this.

I had just got home... put my shit on the ground in my room.. 10 minutes later this happened


unless there is some kind of agreement that he locks his dog in a room or something that he fucked up on, you left someone you know the dog has been after on the ground. It's your own fault, man up and stop being so goddamn spoiled just because your buddy's got a dad with a bank account. A dad who is covering the difference on the lease that your broke ass can't. Jesus christ.
