I am an orthodontist- 12 years of school = broke until 35 years old. Just enjoying fruits of labor for past 5 years. Went 80 corvette, 97 corvette, 2002 ZO6, viper, Ferrari, M3 and now getting back to my first love-Corvettes. I have a bad car habit(my only vice) and a very understanding wife.
I have the same problem, I love cars. Mostly cost watch, only when it comes to cars. You only live once!!
I love my C6, but there are priorities in life, and as much as I love cars a nice car isn't that high up on the list. It certainly shouldn't be ahead of putting your kids through school.
You guys are tough! I'm probably in the minority here, but I don't intend to give my kids a college education. Will I help them along? Sure. But I'm not going to apologize for enjoying my thirties a little even though their college isn't yet paid for. Let's see.....I put myself through college, medical school, and residency completely on my own. Twelve plus years of education and deferred gratification. Nope.....still no regrets over buying myself a Vette!
Retired Sr. Programmer/Analyst after 36 years with a USAF subcontractor testing jet and rocket engines here in middle TN. Bought my 3rd Vette a year after I retired. Driving my 4th one now.
I Advise & structure business owners nationaly who want Nevada Corporations, LLC'S & Nevada Law to protect them. Same as Microsoft, Boeing, Aerospace, JetBlue airlines, Trump enterprises, amazon.com all have. You may hear our radio commercials daily.
I also do living trusts & build corporate credit under their corporations so business owners no longer sign personal guarantees, the corporation has its own A-1 credit.
I also own a record label & have a Rock CD out doing very well along with a music retail website.
God has blessed me with many talents & I try to use them all.
District Manager for a Healthcare outsourcing firm. 38 years old. The down payment for my Vette came from a few good stock investments.
Single and still loving my toys (the Harley and Corvette)
I’m a Mechanical Engineer.
Pretty good money, but not nearly as much as some of you guys that run your own business.
Married, but no kids.
That’s the main reason I have funds available for toys like the corvette at 38-years old.
46 year old Aircraft Maint. Tech. for AA major airline, Doesnt pay that well anymore, but if I dont fix them, who will? try calling AAA at 32,000 ft. Three kids all grown,1 wife almost grown, me? Never!!!

I hit the NJ Lottery back in '01. I could have bought any car out there. Instead, I replaced my '89 and '96 Vette with an '02 Coupe. I recently, purchased a C6 to go along with the C5. When you cut me I bleed "Vette".
