haha definitely not 100% on my own. i dont pay for health insurance, electric bills, rent. 

but i do pay for a healthy amount of things. my parents are also big on saving for the future, hence different bank accounts and investments, but its all MY MONEY. not money they put in them under my name  and dont think i get obscene gifts either, for my 18th birthday i got a handshake, 100$ and a congrats you're now 18.  

working 40+ hours a week every summer plus part time during the winter will add up fast depending on how you spend it.

it mainly depends on the car, and if you have a record

my parents are with state farm and they pay im thinking like 100$ a month (i think its that but i have no real idea) i drive an 05 jeep liberty (but my parents drive it as much as me) they also get a discount if i get all B's on my report cards (if not i have to pay the difference) and i had to fill out a driving log to recieve an extra 10% off the bill....

so id say check around and try doing the incentives if they have any....
