    Great story.Keep working hard and invest your money wisely. You have a lot of years ahead of you. You can loose money as quickly as you can get it. Keep you focus on your family , friends and relationships and you will be fine...I'm not too far from you , annapolis md!

    Congrats to the OP and thanks for sharing your story. Obviously, you've worked hard and have done well for yourself and your family, and I wish you all the best that life has to offer.

    Just, please, be sure to be responsible and mature with your toys. Projecting a bad image in the M-B or 458 will probably have wider consequences for people you don't even know. All I'm saying is make sure you do your part to elevate the image of the Ferrari owner - don't trash it. I'm sure you'll do the right thing.

    "Stay Classy, San Diego..."

    Again, CONGRATULATIONS!!!

    Terrific and heart warming story-your Dad must be proud and an F car is really the very visible cherry on the cake-you made it.

    Beat me by 3 years! Congrats

    Fascinating journey you've had so far and lots more to come by the sounds of things, thank you for sharing! When I was 22 I was cruising around the UK in a Vauxhall Mk3 Cavalier 1.8L which I'm sure had a gearbox made from rice pudding.
