Dude ..... Get the car, who needs a fancy education anyway .... You need to be out drinking and chasing women. The money part is easy, there is always the day labor jobs to put gas in her and buy some more beer.....

College is just a tool so you can obtain some skills/and get ahead. If you use it correctly, it will pay you back.

As someone else said, just get an engineering degree and marry one too and you will be all set. engineering chicks are hot!

Or just become a lawyer, and have all da ladeys....start your own law firm...take control of your life....have any car you want.

Or buy camaro, drink heavily, chase women, watch the years go by....always day labor jobs as someone else suggested..

Should I buy a camaro first, and start school a year from now, at age 22, or sshould I just go to school and wait like 6 years, maybe more for my income to jump? Either way I'd go to school but idk if 22 is too old for college.


Thanks in advanced guys! Your educated responses will have a big impact on my future!

I'm with everyone else, school. You can finish getting your bachelors in 5 years (a lot of schools don't offer many summer classes since the recession) , find a job, get a Camaro.

Wait a little while, then start your Masters, your job may pay for you going to school to get it.

this seems like it would be a no brainer but i'd rather go to school and not have to continue to work 2 jobs than get a camaro.

At least go for your bachelor's degree! I wouldn't have this nice-paying job or my wonderful car without my Bachelor's!

Go to school. Simple as that. Don't be like me. 30 and haven't gone to school and worked at the same job since I was 20 and i'm only making nearly 40k a year. Due to cut backs i'm doing the job of 2 people and one of the responsibilities I gained which was a job in itself paid nearly 70k to the guy I replaced.

I've done all the paperwork and was accepted to the university here. All I need to do is register for classes and i'm good. I wasted time and I don't intend to waste anymore. Unless you have some special skill like acting or just happen to do your passion and it pays well then you'll definitely need school.

School and more school...then think of the Camaro. Don't fall for the "finance the car and still go to school" crap. You don't need any more worries than doing your best in your education.

Get a good education and then buy the car. This car isn't the "best thing in the world"...it is a car and it will detiorate over time. Your education will provide you the tools to be successful and provide the means to buy the things you want.

Buy the car. Fook school. School will be there whenever you want to go.

IM JOKING!

Dude...the car or school? Seriously? Is this a joke? GO TO SCHOOL! The longer you delay - the more likely you will never go to school at all.

Btw, the number 1 reason to go to school? CHICKS. And they dont care what kind of car you drive cuz they dont have jack shit either.

Go to school man. This car is sweet but you need to get your degree so you can get good paying job and not be doing work you hate for the rest of your life. It's just a car and Education is your future! I'm not saying I don't love my car but I think education is just very important! If you get your education then good paying job you be able to buy a camaro easily or possibly any type of car you want?

If you put school off for a year and paid cash for SCHOOL ... that'd be cool, too.
