I'm probably reading more into this than I should, but she's already asking for support money at 16? I'm not entirely sure a life of bliss is in your future. j/k
Another reply. Hehe...

| | | | Any time someone asks if I make any money playing I always tell them of course i do, and at the rate the cash rolling in it should only take me 70 years or so to pay off my gear.
Just when it looks like I've knocked some years off my payback period, some new piece of gear starts whispering to me.
Jokes aside, I once rode a bus for a couple months in Canada playing country music in a bunch of isolated little towns. At the end of that little adventure when we were returned to the states and dropped off, I had earned just enough to get a plane ticket home.

Be careful in any dealings with women - they will steal your soul and then come back for your liver.
