Re:Should i sell my car or not.
thats a nice car for a family that struggles. just tell your brother to work and go to school and if hes old enough to go to school then he can pay for it and your older brother just kick him in the azz! sell the car if you really need to.

Re:Should i sell my car or not.
Damn Donald, I've never had the opportunity to meet you in person, but you seem like a good guy. 
I try to help my mom out as much as I can. She made a few bad decisions and needed help. I helped her out and helped her get her life back in order and now she's working and taking care of herself.
I think it's important to help out family when they need help, but there is a point where something needs to change. Your mom makes $900 a month wokring a 12 hour day? That's not even minimum wage. Are things going to change? Is she going to get a big promotion and start making enough money to support herself anytime soon? Something needs to change and it's not you. It's cool that you want to help your mom and your brother out, but you have a life to live too. You can't dedicate your whole life to making sure your mom has enough money to pay her rent. She needs to figure out what she needs ot do to make it. $900 a month isn't making it. I don't know how it was back where you came from, but it can't be much worse, can it?
My advise, send your mom back home and get an apartment with your brother. Your mom isn't going to make it out there.
I know this isn't about your mom and it's about your car, but damn.....
You shouldn't have to sell your hard earned posessions to support others. My mom would never let me sell my car to help her out. She would be working 24 hours a day before that happened.
Good luck to you. I hope things work out.

Re:Should i sell my car or not.
Justin we met at Steve`s uninstall

i know how all these goes and what u guys throught.
so am i thinking it might be the best if she goes back to HK..just not possible, she wanted take care of her sons. :P
ar..the story is Soooooooooooo long..i don`t even know man..
if you look around 900 to 1000 a month is about right for all those asian owned sewing places. yes it`s not even min. wages but that`s just how it goes.
dam there`s no other chinese ppl here in HTM
