I am 40 years old, make over $100k, and can barely afford a new 370Z..ok I can afford it, but should I? 40 thousand dollars for a car is really stupid money, if I bought a well diversified portfolio for dummies instead, I'd have a quarter million dollars in another 25 years, instead of a very old memory of a nice red sportscar I had in my youf, and just in time for retirement...I didn't do that because I expect to make a lot more money with a high level of certainty, and you're stuck working no matter what, so why not enjoy what you earn, now? And your expenses are nothing now..you probably live at home or share rent for nearly nothing, BUT you will want a family some day, that is the most expensive hobby you will ever have, and you don't want to start that hobby being car poor, believe me, or lacking anything less than a Masters degree. I would find a much better bang for buck option, something like a well used mustang or camaro, maybe a 5 year old 350Z, put some new shocks on it, good tires, and go bonkers....when you're not studying 12 hours a day for that Masters degree. And good things will come. Good luck. Last edited by BrianMSmith; 06-15-2010 at 08:06 PM. |
