Default Occupations?

Corvette are not cheap. Just curious what everyone does for living? This way we can weed out the teens having mum n pop buying for them.

Well, i'm just a 25 yr old firefighter with a knack for performance cars. Had a 00 WS6 when I was 18.
I have paid for everything myself though. We aren't HIGHLY paid, but i'm happy where i am.
I do side work for mod money too "security for night clubs". Just takes me a little longer to save since I do have priorities.

Get a series 7 lisence and go to one of the big investment firms like AG Edwards or Mass Mutual, its hard work at first but will yield great success in a few short years!
