mother or car

i apologize for only giving advice, you better give it to the 4500 dollar to your mom, you will first take to buy a used car, i'm sure you'll be more money than God, because prayer your mom would be granted a god

have you really gave the money to your mom??

Oh, this is a very painful situation... Yeah, well, why did you gave 4,500$ to your mom? It's very kind of you, but if you need money to the point where you are asking yourself if you should ask your mom for you money back, maybe you can't afford this kind of gift... But what is done is done, maybe try to work some more hours... I really don't think you should come to your mother and tell her: give me my money back please... I don't know the relationship you have with your mother, but it might not be the best the best idea you ever had... sorry pal

i think you can discuss with your mother.Tell her what you really think,why do you want to buy a car.car of the important uses for you.i think your mother will understand you,and support you.

I am sure through your lifetime your mother has given you much more then 4.5k, do you think she would ask for it back? If you were selfless enough to give it up, you should not think selfishly to want it back. I personally would not ask her for a dime back. Use the 500 you have left as a down payment for a used car, surely there are car dealers in this market that could use a down payment like that.
