Are you a CPA?

[Rockit_z28]

Director within National Accounts division of a large health insurance company. No, I do not sell insurance, but support the people that do. I have been in the health insurance industry for 25+ years and done a number of different jobs along the way from processing claims to finance to IT to my current role.

I never finished my degree and still get promoted every few years. As mentioned before, hard work pays off! So does having a lot of common sense and not making many mistakes. Don't get me wrong, I still wish I had finished my degree.

lol, how true. depending on the trim level, it's much lower. you can get a camaro in the low 20s'. after all the payments are made, my camaro will actually end up being one of the cheaper car's I've bought. about the only thing cheaper would be the compacts and sub compacts.

No, im a CIA...never worked in public accounting, I dont do financial audits we focus on operations and IT so its not something that would do me any good at this stage. However if I was in college id highly recommend the CPA to give yourself the most options.

As fun as one.

Lets be honest though, this is an impractical vehicle with relatively high operating costs. Yes its pretty affordable, but to the average joe this car is a toy. Its not a rich guy vehicle but its a car that people who have lambos may also have in addition. It cant tow anything, you cant use it for work, you cant put a bunch of kids/animals in it, its not practical and useful like an SUV.

You need to make decent dough to own this car in addition to the rest of expenses that come with life, most folks dont drive 400hp muscle cars and practically nobody has a lambo, this you need a career that is good, the lambo you should either have been born into money or dont technically have to work anymore.

Apparently nerds dont drive fast cars.
Everyone was shocked when I got it

I worked in IT for 40 years. When I started they didn't have nerds, just a bunch of people in their 20's who wanted to make a lot of money without spending years in school. It worked out well for some of us. Back then I had a Firebird 400, my coworker had an Olds 442, and my boss drove an Impala 396 convertible. Nerds came later. I'm retired now, but my wife still works and that helps a lot.
