WTF, $3 Billion. You are saying you spent $3 Billion on a shop and tools? Huh? wow, can I hit you up for about $15K. That ain't shit to a player like you. You would be doing us a big favor, and I am not above charity. So, PM me and I'll be hitting you up for that.

Peace out to the billionaire...

Multi-billionaire that is.

I'm sorry but I would have to ask how the heck can any school come up with a budget/resources of $3 Billion?

I would think thats quite a mistake at that huge $$$ figure.

Sounds like you know where you want to go in life and profession

Props to you, I wished I knew what the hell I wanted to do when I was your age

Its not a waste if you figure he will eventually make 60 a year, which is what he might have paid for all of his school. if he works for 15 years at that salary, I see no waste at all

Actually for $30K you can JUST TAKE AUTO classes with no math or english. Its called a tech school. You go there to learn autos and nothing else. You dont get a degree this way but you get a certificate. Ive looked into everything b/c like you i am going into the auto tech field too.

At this school you can not only go for tecg. you get a associates degree. to get a associates degree you need academic classes. Everynight i will be going to school from 5:45-10:30 1 of those hours each day is a academic class. another hour is lecture of what you will be doing in the shop, then the rest of class is hands on in the shop. i only have to spend 14K plus books, uniforms and i can buy my own tools from the snap-on man if i want.

Yea where i am going it is an associate degree too. Except im not paying $14K for my school. Mine is $8K plus i gotta buy my tools. But tools are around $4K for a good set with everything from Snap-On. But i looked at schools w/o math and shit and it wasnt worth the price to go there. I would hate night school. That would drive me insane.

There is a campus in FL also. you should hit it up agranado.

I am planning on going back for my bach after i graduate with my asociates to get shop managing and moving down south and opening a race shop of some sort. no market for that up here. kids try all the time and just fail. Most kids do there own work up here caues theres nothing else to do.
