I am 23. I have a 6-year-old M3, so it doesn't count as much, but I started a website that turned into a profitable business. I graduated college, got an entry-level job in sales/logistics, and I'm combining the incomes so I have two sources. Now I am well on my way to six figures by 25, my goal.

Left school at 16 with nothing but a grade C Geography O level. Fell into Software Solution Sales by more luck than judgement, was good at it, now a partner in this place, www.cascadehr.co.uk. Paid cash for the M3 and the John Cooper Works. Bought a nice house with a big garage. Got a good wife supporting me behind the scenes (Vital IMO!).

The cars are nothing, kids are the expensive accessories. Schools rob you blind!

£250 each including transfer fees mate, bargain and funny (I think).

I'm graduating college May with a degree in political science which I intend to do nothing with haha. I'm getting a job on NYC in Finance. I'm movng back home to live with my Parents in CT and commute to the NYC for work 45 min commute. I am selling my 05 custom lifted 4runner to help pay for my M3 and help pay for my M3. Spend your money wisely. I have been investing in the stock market with good success since I was 16. You have to take risks To get rewards and be willing to make sacrifices to do things. I am going to live back at home because it doesn't make sense for me to get an apt right away and I would much rather have an M3. It makes sense for me I will hardly have any bills to pay and will just wait a year or two and wait for my friends to grad before I move out. Best way to save money and still live a good lifestyle.

Keep working hard don't get down on your self. Continue your education take risks because in finance and investing risks can equal rewards butthe keyword is CAN equal reward. Be smart and invest wisely. I reccommend reading rich dad poor dad. Great book to teach you how to make money and go about achieving your financial goals. Make the money work for you and invest wisely.

Education, education, education, followed by endless hard work year after year - I am no M3 owner but wife has a 2010 Z4 35i loaded out and I drive a X5 35d loaded out plus a nice house, healthy retirement and college funds for the kids, etc with no revolving debt. There are other ways to "success" but this is the only formula I know.

Same Age , similiar situation, same goal

<--Buying some type of M car within the next 2 weeks

Any I agree with everybody on the Education Subject. Never stop educating yourself and concentrate on networking.

I will be starting a top 50 part-time MBA program next year.

Most people have said it and I agree with it, It's not always what you know but who you know. I like to think that if you have the knowledge and "know" the right people you will have the recipe for success (Luck does not hurt either )
