Sorry, but kinda funny that you're in the "pysch" field but you seem to be really worried about what others think I don't see buying an M3 as "childish" at all or even a mid-life crisis thing either. I'll be 40 next week and am in no way in a crisis Now when i see a 60+ guy in a Z06 then yeah, i think "crisis" But even still, if that's what he wants, then he should go for it. Who cares what others think

I make and I sell...soap.
Jk. I work at a Toyota dealership, and boy did I catch hell for buying a $74k BMW. Probably 3 or 4 people at work get the M thing. Good thing I got the car for me. And good thing the wife understands. |

"Have No Life" contract? Well - the profession can be kind of consuming but as a contractor you've got pretty good flexibility as far as vaction goes. And these days a lot of companies don't want contractors to work more than 40 hours/week. Somewhat of a work-life balance guarantee (although employers' concern is budget not people hahaha). |
