Plans may work differently. I assure you a Maxima was never on my list of cars to obtain in the future (I really did want an E46 BMW 328i) but honestly the more I drive this car the more I love it. When I bought this car I planned to keep it 'just long enough' till I could afford a BMW (plans were for roughly a year from purchase, which is less than 6 months from now) but I don't want to give this car up! It was funny, working in retail definitely bothered me in terms of management and customer treatment of you, the lowly employee, but I was also exposed to the atmosphere of people working retail full-time, which allowed me to realize "hey, it's entirely possible to live on this" ... which actually sort of demotivated me to work harder at school! Jeff - taking time off can be a good thing. I knew a few people who ended up dropping out of college for a bit because they still had no clue what they wanted to major in (one of them is now an apprentice electrician!). However, at the same time you shouldn't get stuck in a rut - I also have other friends who went that route and ended up never saving up for their future. Take your time, figure out what it is you like to do and want to either pursue doing or getting better at it. Remember also, happiness doesn't require a college degree Last edited by Rouar; 08/27/06 05:48 AM. Matthew 2000 Nissan Maxima SE Sold: 98.5 Contour SE V6 ATX
