You guys would be surprised how cheap they have become. I found one I actually wanted in low 80K range. Right now its easy to find a 03-04 in that area. Especially since the LP560 revision came out with the new bumpers lights and more horse power.
Just think if you put down 50k and financed 30-40k the payment would be the same as buying a Honda accord. Insurance might be a little more but my wife is a insurance agent so I'm sure we can work that out.
How much do you think you will make as a engineer? Nurses start out around 100k a year and can make over 150k depending on where they are and what their job title is. That coupled with the fact that my wife has a full time job as well means we should be pretty comfortable. And nurse anesthetists average around 180k a year. But its also 4-6 years more schooling.

Nurses in my area (Note: NOT the bay lol) start at about 60k. Engineers start at around 80k and after 4 years I take my PE (Professional Engineer) test. After that The pay will be over 100k. Also like I said it's dependent on area. If the first job offer I get is in the middle east I'd take it. I'd get so much more pay too and if I work there over a year? It's tax free or some shiz

I have never seen anywhere in this state that pays nurses that little. Maybe that's part time. I don't live in the bay, I live about two hours east of oakland in the hills. 
In a little town called Sonora.
How much longer will you be in school? It seems like i will never be done because I am only taking a couple class's at a time so I can work.
Anyone going to the car show in pleasenton this saturday? I think a freind and I will be taking our FD's.

Well both my parents are RN's and have been doing that for about 20+ years each and working about 40-50 hours a week they make around 100k before taxes. My mom works in a hospital and my dad works in a surgery center for minor surgeries.
And if finances weren't an issue for me I'd be done in 3 semesters, but due to shitty finances it'll take me 4 semesters.

Happy Easter to all!
I couldn't make it to the classic car meet yesterday so I'm jealous of any of you that made it. Saw some pics from my friend and the cars looked good!
