flipped: that is my concern, that I shall exit shool get a job probably doing something I don't really enjoy. Then when the monthly statement from citibank comes asking for some of its money back I borrowed for school, I'll be stressed and dissapointed. I know what I love, simply put...cars. I know everyone on this board might say the same, but in honesty ask anyone who really truly knows me as a person. I've grown up around cars and a passion for them. I've been driving since I was 10 years old and most everyone respects me as a driver. I have literally a library of car magazines dating back to when I was 8-9 years old. I only wish I could wake up every morning knowing I'll be working somehow with cars...not nessecarily fixing/engine stuff but generally be in the presence of cars in a business dealing with cars.

My great concern is that I cannot do this and make the kind of living I want to make. I'm not asking for like $100k + annual salary, just enough to live well, have 2-3 nicer cars and decent-sized house. Thats all. I am at a loss as to the direction to take.

I've looked into WyoTech, but worry when I come out I won't be tuning cars, or building performance race engines, but a grease monkey fixin other peoples problems...which i don't want to do. I want to be respected...

sorry I'm ranting again....can't help it....please help.
