I'm also in the Investment Banking business, here in San Francisco...actually Finanacial Advisor. We do have the Pacific Stock Exchange here... I almost got into the trading business but alas, too stressful. Have you read Nick Leeson's book about his escapades with Barrings Bank in Singapore? Great Trader's book.

 

Yeah, it's stressful. But the challenge and rewards make up for it. High drop out rate in the first few years (80%-90%) and the pay sucks when you first start. It starts to get easier in a few years as your asset-base grows. At least I made enough to buy a Z!

BTW I've been in the business a few years and didn't know that NASDAQ had a trading pit. Where is it located at? I thought it was an electronic OTC exchange.

 

Im 23 years young and i am a Navigator in the USAF. Picked up my Z on May 23rd. Three days later i moved from Va beach VA to Texas. Shortly thereafter sold my 98 Accord Coupe. I almost have 7K miles already. I LOVE my Z!!!

 

Damn some of you guys have owned some badass cars, I wish I could say I owned a NSX geez lol. Here's my much shorter list lol.

1978 Buick Skylark (17)
1977 Mercury Grand Marquis Wagon (17)
1970 Mercury Cougar (18)
1979 Chevy Monte Carlo (18)
1989 Dodge Daytona (19)
1999 Toyota Corolla VE (25)
1988 Acura Integra LS (28)
2001 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra (28)
2003 Mitsubishi Outlander LS AWD (28)
2003 Nissan 350z (29)

I still own the last 2 cars on the list. Not neearly as cool as some of the lists you guys have posted

I can say one thing though I bought and paid for every single car I've ever owned including registration, taxes, insurance everything from all the way back to when I was in high school to the present no one ever gave me a hand out. Not trying to disrespect any of you younger owners here, but I see many of my employees having their parents buy them car after car after car. They buy them a brand new expensive car they wreck it, and they go buy them another one. That does not teach anyone responsibility in my opinion. One of my employees had these cars and he was only 16/17 working part time for me.

1998 Mustang SVT Cobra Convertible (traded it)
1998 Dodge Dakota R/T (wrecked it)
1998 Chevy Corvette Z06 (sold it)
Some Street Bike (wrecked it)
1999 Acura RSX (wrecked it)
Some Mercedes Benz (traded it)
2000 Cadillac Escalade

He doesn't work for me anymore, so I don't really know what he's driving now but he got all of those cars in the span of less than 2 years I know that. I also know his parents have a NSX and a Ferrari, so go figure I guess. His parents only made him get a job to teach him responsibility lol, what a joke.

 

im 17 just got it for my grauation gift black/t burnt orange

 

20 in feb... I was lucky enough to land a job selling 350's at a local Nissan store here in NC. So needless to say... the first one I sold was to myself. Got a pretty good deal on it

Pay for everything myself... live by myself... having a nice job is what its all about. I am the youngest salesman in the area and prob drive the nicest car

regards,

Jeremy

 

48..last time I counted. First 'Z' I've ever had but its the second sports car I've ever owned. Waited till one of the kids left the nest before hitting Mid Life crisis...big time.

1982 RX-7 (sold, b/c we had a baby)
2001 Pathfinder (hers)
1984 Kawasaki 750 (mine, I'm the original owner still)
2001 Magna 750 (mine again)
Catalina 27...(sailboat for all you landlubbers) :-) Oh and its 'OURS'

 

It doesn't have one; NASDAQ is purely an electronic market

 

24-graduated grad school in the spring and decided to purchase a Z!
My past cars
16-1989 Ford Tempo
17-1996 Toyota Tercel
24-2003 350Z
I saved up money by keeping the Tercel throughout my education, it was a very reliable car and good for a student, however the Z was quite a pleasant change from the 4-speed Tercel!
