Over 1 month until I can get a new rig, it feels oh so far away

 

[sampson_smith]

Care to elaborate? What rig are we putting on the "wish list"?

 

[RichieLitt]

Ultrasone 780s and a Hifi-Man EF2..Unless someone can suggest a better Amp/DAC combo.

Why wait for artificial timelines? Get what you want now.

It's gonna be a gift from my parents. I'm 18 and have probably around 1k in the bank, but they don't want me "wasting" it.

Oh, I see. In that case then I guess you're going to have to wait.

Life's tough. Some families lost their homes in 2009. Deal with it.

For some reason, I'm starting to think that the "e" in your name doesn't stand for "easy", now does it, estreeter!

In no way did I ever compare my troubles to those people's. I realize I'm spoiled, but why are you making baseless connections?

I think it was made in the vein of 'count your blessings'.

Hope you enjoy whatever you get

It was made in the vein of 'get a job', but thats just a boomer thing.

. . . how do you know he doesn't have a job now? All he said is that he has money in the bank and is waiting for Christmas.

Besides, one saying they're going to get a job and actually being able to get one is two different things. The job market in the US still sucks, especially for those that are younger, inexperienced, and without a college degree. Even a fry flipping job is hard to get right now.

All of the above adds to my contention that he should be counting his blessings. Thanks for your support.

I am sure you can manage the 4 1/2 weeks wait..

Well, nothing feels better than buying your own stuff with your own money. But however you get it doesn't matter I guess.
