How old are FC drivers?

I saw a similar thread in the FD section and the majority of the owners seem to be in their mid 20's. Then I got to thinking, and was curious about you FC guys. How old are you guys? What do you guys do to support your hobby?

I'm a 26 year old medical scribe, and have owned my FC since I was 17. Haven't had much time to do anything major since I applied for med school this year. But i'll eventually get around to what I want done.

23 years old, Junior Sys admin in IT, Owned the car since I was 19. I do computer repair on the side to help pay for this addiction. in my 4 years of owner ship I've gone from a 4lug NA to built turbo...

Have you tried turning it off and turning it on again?

Two months shy of 29. I've had mine for 6 years.

Went from Nortel engineer to mobile electronics installer to recently unemployed due to my former employer treating me like garbage.

That's pretty impresive. Any pics of the cars you've owned?
