I am a Replenishment Mgr. for Target out in the Phoenix area. My wife and I will be happily married for 10 years coming up on 06/17. We have 2 kids and they are about all I can handle right now. Was born and raised on the southside of CHICAGO then moved to the far suburbs(JOLIET) where the CHICAGOLAND Speedway is at(for those of you who are into NASCAR) then just recently moved to the Phoenix area due to the wife getting a real nice promotion. Different way of living out here compared to the bigger cities. Going back to college after dropping out and now just realizing that you need your degree what ever it maybe in to get yourself noticed and to make the BIG BUCKS$$$$.

Congrats on your ten (10) years.

Hey man all I can say is don't give up looking for something you want. I am in the same boat as you. I do have a college degree from the University of Iowa, I've been out of school a year and half and still haven't found anything what I supposedly went to school for. The college degree really hasn't helped to much so far. If you don't mind people and dealing with money I suggest getting a job at a bank. There are many different ways to go, you might have to be a teller for a while but growth is always a possibility within banking.

I agree. A Bank Job has excellent benefits, you never work late, you get to dress nice *which should be a gimme with your LS!!* and flexible schedules. I am working on my second year at Bank of America here in Kansas City. Not amazingly happy with it but it's a solid job, lots of paid vacation/holidays, competitive salary for a 21year old with no college degree.

A buddy and myself are hopefully following through with openening a car audio/custom shop. Doing anything from body kits/paint, to stereos, to interior etc. =) I have the business loan lined up if I need it but a lot of :q:q:q:q to go through first!
 
I sell Coke! I have been an Account Manager with Coca Cola Enterprises for the past 5 years. Love my job, love my company, HATE the politics of working for one of the largest company's in the world. I'm 36 yrs old, Married w/ 1 child and on on the way.

I graduated high school and went straight out to work (My dad being superintendent for a major power contractor helps alot). I went to a vo-tech during high school for welding for three years. I took a tube test which is a heli-arc root (tig welding), and then SMAW (stick welding) the rest of the way out all on a 45 degree angle,3 1/2" diameter tube (pipe as union pipefitters call it). Now i am a certified welder for 22 contractors in the ohio/PA/WV region and am on call to go anywhere in those three states right now. Hell i'm only 20 years old, life is great, i love my country i love my car

Nice to meet a fellow power plant guy. Im a former power plant operator. Operated the little stuff (1200 psi) all the way up to the super critical units (3206 psi). All the boilers I worked with were Natural gas fired with fuel oil burning capability. Man I miss the plants.
 
I'm Brandon Williams, 19-years-old, born and raised in Philadelphia. I am currently attending DeVry University, majoring in Network Systems Administration. I work in the first report unit at High Point Insurance, the company that took over Prudential's New Jersey property and casualty insurance policies once they were sold. Hopefully soon I'll get a job in the computer field. Just trying to sharpen my skills right now. My 1994 black and tan Lincoln Mark VIII is the first car I've had the privilege of purchasing, and a truly worthwhile purchase it has proved to be. Just trying to bring it back to its original glory.
 
I'm 29 years young, Work for Uncle Sam (USN) as a Meteorologist. What a job, trying to predict the future.

Golf...did someone say GOLF!! Oh my! That is my first passion! Forget the LS and just let me play golf!! I've played ever since I was in the 5th grade. Great looking site for golf balls. Have you checked out www.4gea.com? That place is awesome and I spend about as much time there as here.

Maybe we can work a deal on some golf balls like Pro V1's or something. I'm a 4 handicap so I must not work much huh? :Beer

I'm 19 years old attending St. Thomas University pursuing an MBA degree. Currently I work as a bill collector, and no, as an answer to the question I know most of you are thinking, I won't call you. LOL. Love owning a Lincoln and I think I may very well be the youngest sole owner of an LS. Not sure if that is good thing or not...anyways...thats the jist of it...
 
I'm Mark Allen, currently residing in Atlanta Georgia. I have two jobs right now. I work for a mortgage banking consulting firm as VP of Operations. And my other job I have just recently started, which is my own real estate investing company. Basically the company buys houses near college campuses(starting off in Athens at UGA) and then rents out rooms to college kids. This is quite possibly one of the best investments I've ever made, and anyone who's interested or does invest, I would definately look into doing this.
 
I am 31, married now for 11 yrs this year (whew, has it been that long) and we have a 9 year old daughter. I am a software engineer and part owner of a software company, writing consumer lending software for auto dealers, finance companies and title pawn companies as well, along with dental practice management and property management software.

IF you drive a lincoln ls

my name is joe "hence the joe dirt". right now I'm a master tech for a ford dealer in corydon IN. Soon to be senior masters i hope. I'm 26 years old. not married, no kids. Im originally from Trenton, NJ and just moved out to Indiana 8 months ago with a buddy that also works for a ford dealership. I never went to a technical school for cars just always had a knack for them.

I used to be a HUGE mustang freak, I've built a couple street/strip cars. I traded in my 02 GT for the love of my life right now. my lincoln LS. :D
 
Hey gang,

Well I'll be 39 on the 29th.

I'm a computer applications developer and have been in IT for the last 18 yrs. Mosty I have Reporting and tracking applications as well as supporting telemarketing campaigns (no not the cold call loosers who call during dinner, but ones that support warm lead growth).
I'm currently a full time Dad, left the last job because boss/owner would not backup his promises (even the ones on paper). It cost me more money to try and work at that job than it did to quit.

I'm looking for new opportunities and perhaps some more education to broaden my skill set.

Mark Allen:yourock:, my name is Aaron Scherbel, currently in St. Paul, MN and I love your idea and I can't wait to get into real estate myself. I am currently pursuing an MBA degree at St. Thomas University and I have tons of ideas for small businesses, especially in real estate. I'd really be interested in discussing more about your business and how you were able to get it up and running. E-mail me @ milliondollarman420@hotmail.com, look forward to talking to you.
