I'm 19 I have loans to pay for school and work at UPS to pay for rent. Thus the FC doesn't get much love.

I'm the stereo-typical broke college student who owns an FC and does all his own work on it. Used parts FTW!

Almost forgot I'm a 2nd year photojournalism major. The camera and the FC get in a lot of fights over my affection.

 

I'll be 25 here next month. Used to work at SGP racing in Houston soupin up Nissans, Toyotas, Subarus etc. Couldn't make enough money cuz things were so disorganized, so now I'm a store manager at a vehicle inspection station.

Not much money to put into the 7 now that I got a 10 month old son, so I'm just buyin up the stuff I need piece by piece until I've got everything.

 

22 and a VW technician. Since they are always broke there is a good bit of money. about 50k a year...however economy tanked and nobody wants to spend the money to fix it right. Plus i support my fiance while she is in nuclear radiology school...so the TII looks like **** but runs well.

 

I'm 20 years old.
I am a Dimensional Control(Metrology) Technician Apprentice at Northrop Grumman Shipbuilding in Newport News. I just got into my second year, so my yearly salary is about 35k.
It isn't a lot but I get plenty of OT and live at home right now so I'm comfy. I will get a 2 year degree in Mechanical Engineering upon completion. They are also working on a Bachelors Degree partnership for us with ODU. I will be done with my apprenticeship in 2012. I don't spend very much on my FC, as I am trying to save up a nice fat down payment for a house.
Upon completion my pay will be a little above 51k. I hope that will be enough to live off of. We will see.

 

I'm 24, and have been a Digital Pre-Press Technician for about 6 and a half years now. Make around 46k a year. And definitely need alot more to maintain my FC. Although i bought a townhouse too, so thats where the majority of my money goes.

 

22, Amada Punch operator 33k annually and i drive a Altima SE-R. If you need large amounts of precision sheet metal fabrication contact Metcam, Inc.

20 year, just graduated tech school. I worked at DHL for 6 months part time while attending school until they went out of business. Now I sit at home and collect unemployment compensation ($300/wk)

 

I work at a trucking company. Working in the office when the trucks are out, and performing maintenance on them when they are in.

I don't have a huge chunk to play with as I also have a dodge ram I'm paying for.


22

 

I make 3d models for kid computer games. It's actually pretty boring. I have been catching up on debts accrued from school, so I've spent no money or time on the 7 in a whole year (graduated last May, went to work immediately). I'm 25, but I dunno if that really matters.

 

im a commercial electrician & i manage a apartment building [22] ... and my fc eats all my money.... (dirty little *****) but i <3 her

 

Ouuii, a lot of people my age makin so much more than me

 

i'm 28 auto mechanic for the city.
got rent bills like everybody else and 3 cars.
a girlfriend and an english bulldog pup, they take some of my money too.

 

This community has a lot of interesting jobs! A bunch of you all have really clean cars; even if your not constantly dropping dough in em.

 

25 here. I work in sales for HVAC.
I pay rent, $600, which is DIRT CHEAP in NY
$248 train ticket to get to work
$400 car payment, $130 insurance for my daily driver '08 Civic Si
$60 phone bill
$100 student loans (good thing I dropped out of school 5 years ago)
$200+ for food
I try to put $1000 per month into savings
Thankfully I already have all the parts I need for my FC, and now the weather is good so I can FINALLY build it.

 

I'm 22 and working at the local Walmart doing oil changes and tires. It pays the bills, and since I don't have many hobbies most of my income goes into keeping me or the car running.

 

im 21, a full time ase certified technician at pep boys. its a job, im working toward my smog license and possibly a job at bmw or something more high end.

Rot8n87, woah woah woah, you work for the place that produces the b2 spirit bomber.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
siiiiiiiiiiicccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkk

 

Same company, but not the same sector
I have a helping hand in Virginia Class Subs and will have a helping in the new Ford Class of carriers. I love my job!

 

I'm a systems engineer for Windows servers for Wal-Mart. I can afford bits and pieces for the RX7, but paying for the wife is a lot more costly.

 

22 working at a local online shop called LOCOMX.COM and LOCOSTREET.COM shipping out motocross gear, and street bike stuff, have 2 kids, 2 year old, and 2 month old, and not making much money lol.

My tax refund bought my TII that isn't running, and i see it being a yearly basis of 2k into the car per tax refund.

I Also am a full time student, and unfortunately and fortunately my father is a disabled vet, and i get paid to go to college w/ full paid tuition. but i don't spend much on the seven with that.


The wife has her own little photography thing going, not much money in that so far.

 

Double degree in mining and civil engineering, 2 year off adding an engineering law degree to that. I own my house and my employer paid for my university so I probably have a little more free cash than most, but I still don’t go crazy on the car.

Currently working for local government, but make most of my money from other contract / consulting work and royalties. The only reason I still work for the local government is out of loyalty for paying the Uni, plus there are some projects that you would never get an opportunity to be involved in the private sector.

I'm 22½ y/o, but as MidnightOwl said, I don't really see the relevance in age when it comes to work. I know guys at the top of their field by 25 and those still at the bottom at 60. Don't chase the money or status, strive to work in an area that you truly enjoy.

 

damn you guys are lucky bastards, you got jobs..
still hunting, and the n/a is still breaking [brakes are going out so i gotta rely on friends]
having no money sucks. not even a dollar.

 

18, pharmacy technician at walgreens.

don't make a whole lot, going to school at the same time, so i tend to accidentally save up money (since sometimes work/school catches up so much i have no time to spend money)

 

17, jobless

But since I live at home, I can pour any money I do get into my car (well, cars now )

 

im 23, do network support for businesses in ohio for a cable company.
