I kept thinking about how some day I want to have my own shop, even if it's just for myself. I KNOW we all share share that same dream on some level, who wouldn't want to ditch their 40 hour work week doing something that just pays well in favor of working on cars?
Now this probably sounds lame, I mean, I'm 18, what do I know about any of this? Well I know that I love cars and that the passion I have for them would make keeping cars on the road to support myself bearable for that opportunity to customize or tune or whatever someone's car.
I'm studying computer science right now, another one of my interests. Maybe someday I can combine my knowledge of computers with that of cars, but I know that I can definitely live comfortably with a degree in CS. I don't know what the backgrounds of most people are on this board, but my situation seems common: someone studying something because they might have passion for it, but the driving force behind it (for me, at least) is that I can afford to do things like an engine swap into my FB. Maybe I'm just obsessed with money, I don't know.
Anyways, my point is, someone loyal on here (who isn't loyal on NP?) needs to
A) When the lottery OR
B) Concoct a pyramid scheme.
The way I see it, Phinsup wins the lottery and grants the moderators (who are worth) an healthy some to establish Nopistons tuner shops in their respective parts of the United States (or the world). Or, whoever designs the pyramid scheme assumes the role of Phinsup, but instead of ADMINISTERING (that one's for you, Scott) the forums, s/he would control the operations of the NP tuner shops. That way we can all be happy.
That is all."

Oh yeah, I forgot to add...
Do share your plans for accomplishing whatever your goals are...I'm sure this shop topic has been talked about before, but not at length.
*Moderators that are WORTHY*
*A healthy sum, not an*
--per ColinRX7 and my grammar police position--

I heard something from my boss today that blew my mind, it kinda killed my confidence in humanity.
He said, and I quote, "I only live to make money and get laid."
It pissed me off since this guy is 32, single, has 4 houses and owns a lot more real estate, owns a Lexus GS430 and can drive anything we have on our parking lots. (I work for a Dodge/Kia dealership BTW for those who didn't know)
Most of you will probably think, "What's so wrong with what he said?" Well, a few minutes after he said it, I kinda went off thinking.
I figured that there's more to life then just getting laid and being rich. There's love, kids, doing things that don't require sex or money but still make you happy.
I mean, this guy could do whatever he wanted with his life, but all he wants is more money. These are the people who never get enough, and the best example of tha kinda person and his outcome would be Tony Montana.
He had it all, and he threw it all away, just because he didn't know when it was enough. I don't know about you guys, but I refuse to let myself become that way.
