Default It's so Hard to Say Goodbye...

I decided to take a position with another company who is willing to pay for my Masters Degree 100% which is an awesome deal. The problem is my salary is not going to be the same as my current work but I figured in the long picture, it is well worth it.

I'm saying goodbye to my 07 Pikes Peaks after only 8 months, i'm going back to an RSX Type S which I owned while in college. This is going to save me about $175 a month.

Hopefully after I get my Masters in a few years I will be back on this forum or 370Z.com with my Z back in full effect.

It's actually not a bad trade.
You get another car, an RSX Type S that is already paid off. It's not even a crappy old school car.
You get a job that's going to be paying for your education (100%).
When I was doing my last 2 years of college, I had to sell my Celica GT-S for an Acura Integra (1994). Had to pay for my education through the contractor job I found at the time.

You're good to go imo. Still drive a nice car and not have to worry about paying for your education. Win...
