Moving Fast
Things have been moving at a million miles per hour lately, and I'm loving it. School doesn't start till the 31st, so I am focusing on business only. Things are starting to get REALLY exciting.
The amount of reading and "studying" I'm doing right now for various businesses is more than I've ever had in school, but it's all for business so it's much more fun. The reading is mainly for another personal business project I'm launching soon. I've got three full books to read and take detailed notes on. It has something to do with:
Speaking of moving fast, I saw my first on-the-road Ford GT during a business meeting at a hotel. This thing will set you back something like $180,000:
For about 2 months I've been seriously thinking about purchasing a new Aprilia Scarabeo 50 scooter. Everything I do is within a 4 mile radius of my new apartment, and parking before 6:00pm is the most frustrating thing around campus and all over downtown Austin.
After doing the research, the Aprilia is by far the best (and most expensive) 50cc scooter I've seen. It gets 122 miles to the gallon because it's the only fuel-injected 50cc scooter in the world. I've spoken to people who own them, and the consensus say they can hit a top speed of about 50mph with ease.....fast enough to be safe in traffic, and slow enough to keep me out of trouble.
A brand new 2005 model out the door after tax, title and 1-year of insurance is around $3,400.

If only I had the keys...

I ride. Love it. It's cheap and fun. There are downsides though ... I've just had a shoulder reconstruction from a motorcycle accident. All turned out okay though. I wanted to sell that bike anyway but would only have been able to get about $4K for it. It was, however, insured for $5.5K. So, I got a good ROI (seeing as i didn't pay that much for the bike) AND I didn't die ... Bonus. You just gotta watch the psycho car drivers out there. They have no clue.
Wow less than 4k for that scooter -- sweet deal. If it wasn't so friggen cold here in Canada for most of the year I'd consider getting one
That GT is a very sexy car
