How can i convince my dad to let me buy a gaming pc?
-
I'm 14 and by the end of the summer im going to have 1700 bucks or more saved up. i found a good gaming pc and all the accessories im going to get with it for only 1149 bucks. its 833 without all the accessories but im getting a bunch of razer stuff and a monitor so thats what made it so much more. well my dad wants me to be saving for a car. and he's a hard working guy. i know it will disappoint him that after all this money ive been saving im going to spend it on a computer but i already know how im going to get the money for my car. i have a job during the summer mowing yards. plus if i make all a's (which i never done before but i start 9th grade this year and it will be my challenge) my mom said she'd give me 1200 bucks plus all the money i get for my report cards individualy. so i figure if i could do that then i could put 2000 towards my truck im buying from my grandpa and 1200 towards my computer. and my computer is only about 1200 so that would leave an extra 400 (minus 100 for some games im going to buy with the computer). so do you think an old school hard working dad would listen to my plan. my dads a electricity man btw. (works on lightpoles and electricity lines putting them up, fixing them, etc.) plus he's always spending money on stuff he likes like cars, vacations, remodeling, and other stuff. he's more of an outdoor type and doesnt like video games so he wouldnt understand why i like them. i dont have any games system right now besides my ps2.

Answer:
It might be wise to tell him that a computer will last years and it is also something you will use over and over again. besides there's more time to save for a car, (I'm guessing 1-2 years) and also this is your hobby that you enjoy. It's important to you so that might persuade him, it might not.

Tell him a gaming PC has the top graphics card and processor which makes it an overall great computer, not just for games.
