Good job - NYC still has good opportunities - you just have to plan ahead, be on your toes all the time and be a little bit lucky - oh yeah and not afraid of a lot of hard work

holy sh*t - I'm going to have to read that thread more carefully when I get a chance.

I'm guessing that very few people on this forum have had your experience?

5erman · 01-09-2011, 05:48 PM

Wow a lot of boring jobs! jk jk Any other MDs out there? A fellow colleage laughed at me when I told him I was looking at m3's-apparently it is too young of a car for a 30 year old! Really-I mean shoot I have been waiting for an m3 since I was 14. It probably is true but I have to live out my childhood dream or I will never let it rest!

why the link to IT folks?? I dont get it.

I think owning a gas station is a very good advantage while driving a V8 M3

Emergency Physician.
There are two of us driving M3's from my group. Both of us 36. 30% of our residents want an M3.

Yeah - I think it's a great car - more fun and comfortable than a 911 and not too flashy

wew good to know. I do CL pysch but did not want to buy an m3 if it was considered "childish" I definetly dont want to go for the mid-life-crisis look! I intend on getting into the track life and that drove my decision but the more docs the better!

Turn 27 end of the month E92 on order, I feel lucky to have a car like this at my age. $70k is no joke. Though I am financing for that killer .9%

Got mine last year at 27, restaurant owner in Delaware.

I agree that this topic is going to attract more 20-30 year olds then any other age group. Also, maybe the relation to ITs and m3s isn't that most M drivers are Its. More like this is an internet forum and attracts ITs more then any other occupation.

I'm starting to sound like that crazy guy who was shooting people...if you are an IT and like Internet forums you like M3s.
