For me, your question needs a well thought out answer, beside just what I do for a living. Since in the end, my ability to earn an income has a lot more to do with how I learned to live my life and what wealth really is.

I will make time to PM you, but at 52 I have learned a lot of things and made notable mistakes along the way.

I can tell you that I am very greatful to be in my current situation and your drive and ambition will take you a long way. Getting a good education is a huge start.......I will get back to you shortly.

RL67POLO's quote is rather poignant and relevant.........Steve

Congrats on the beautiful new ride. It's an amazing car.

I drove the 458 and a Scud back to back last week on the track and would take the F430 Scud all day, ever day over the Italia for pure driving enjoyment.

That is one heck of a day. I can see why you would choose the Scud on the track since it really is built for it.

The 458 will do track time just fine, but is really more of a DD Ferrari which is fine by me.

How did you score such a prized opportunity?????

I was only kidding.....the X5M has full snows and is ready for the worst of weather. I have taken the F430 out when the roads are clear and dry though. It is way too much fun to let it sit all winter......Steve
