My old roommate used to do this. If you are looking to change careers, then AMEX will train you on how to be a financial advisor, then you owe them a certain ammount of time working for them for your training. Some of the things AMEX offers are worthwhile, I want to say they have a good money market account plan, but its been over a year since I checked it out last and the paperwork is still sitting next to the throne. Next time I go for a sit down, I'll look it over. Anyways, he said he got tired of basically being a financial salesman and not a financial advisor, so he went to work for Charles Schwab. The guy totally dominates all his fellow employee's by almost 300% in the monthly numbers, so I tend to trust him. Just be careful, ask LOTS of questions, and watch out for hidden fee's. Off Topic, I had a meeting with an AMEX advisor a year or so back and I ask my roommate about it. My roommate actually knew the advisor that I was going to see and told me things to watch out for, basically said it'd be a waste of my time and then told me to watch out for the sales pitch. Sure as shit, the Financial advisor gave me the sales pitch verbatim as my roommate said to watch out for. I grabbed my stuff and left. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

Okay, I'll admit there's been some chilly days. But there's been at least a couple where it's only been freezing at altitude and in the 50s on the ground. I've taken *off* layers on a lot of days. I am in Kirkland, and on these nice days, I take my bike out and do 60MPH down the freeway and freeze. No way in hell I'm going faster at lower temps with less clothing. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

Thats right... And people who like them also love the Gremlin... My Buddies got a gremlin with a 350 windsor in it. I like that gremmy ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

I recommend checking them out in person. With the moon roof option the majority of the roof is glass. Its not a sliding moon roof but I believe it pops up to get some ventilation. Rear wheel drive, plenty of torque, and the thing sticks to the road like glue. I've always like hatchbacks, I've owned a 93 Civic Si, 92 Civic SiR-II, and a 88 CRX. The M coupe will be my next car. There is a guy at work who has one, so I drool on it everyday in the parking garage ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

I apologize, should also be more clear in saying that I am talking about used M Coupes in that price range. Here is a used one about 100 miles from you, according to your profile. http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=165371586&dealer_id=82127&car_year=1999&make=BMW&distance=300&lang=en&max_price=&model=BMWMCOUPE&end_year=2006&min_price=&certified=&address=02818&search_type=both&advanced=&start_year=1981&isp=y&cardist=109 ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

You will either love it or hate it, there is usually no in between. Its really hard to find info about the M Coupe, usually most sites have info pertaining to the M3, or M roadster, but the coupe is still kinda rare. They were available in the mid-late '90s with as a Z3 coupe, but later became the M coupe, and I believe they have both the E36 or E46 M engine depending on what year you buy. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

Thats debateble. Ever considered an M Coupe? Very original, 49/51 weight balance, and an M3 engine :) ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

Sorry to bring bad news, but its a total loss. They will typically total a car when the damage reaches about 60% of its current worth. I am glad to hear you are ok though. Be safe out there! Your other option is to take the cash that they give you and buy another car with it. Everybody has their brand of choice, but you can usually find 88-95 Honda civics/crx's for about $2,000. They are reliable and cheap to fix! Then you've got the remainder of the cash for jump tickets or put it towards paying the debt of $3,900 on your totaled car. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/6873558 I used to work with that guy. He was a team admin and I used to get and order supplies from him all the time. Its kind of one of those reality check moments, like I have had my eyes closed the whole time. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

Nope, I dont accept american express, discover, or diners club. The percentage is much higher and the overall popularity is less. I have read the paypal agreement, please be aware that is has changed quite dramatically over the years, especially after their whole law suit deal. I am not convinced they offer a quality service, but opinions are like ass holes, everybody has one. Good luck to ya! ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

Isnt that the way ALL brake systems work? You can never be 100% sure your brakes will stop you until after they've stopped you. OK - but for the most part you take it for granted that they will right? When I compare the number of times they have saved my ass to the number of times they havent, teamed with the regular inspection and maintenance performed by myself, probability is on my side. I am however aware of the consequences and am confident in my ability to react if they should fail. I am fully prepared to accept the risk of driving a car with brakes that may fail at any time. With my current track record, I am far more likely to be crushed like a tin can than to have my brakes fail. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

I'll be honest, personally I have not had a problem, most likely because I try my damndest not to use them. A close friend of mine, my last room mate, used to run a retail business. One of his primary gateways for fund transfer was through paypal. This was over 4 years ago, before ecommerce was really up to speed. Long story short, they ended up sending him a notice email that they were putting his account (with about $27,000) on hold with no estimated end date. If you are familiar with small business, that is a crippling blow, of which was one of a couple reasons that caused him to go under. If you will also recall about a year ago, paypal was involved in a law suit and was required to distribute money they it owed people. And not just one or two people, but thousands of people. I might still have the email somewhere, I never clean my inbox. I have also heard of other accounts being placed on hold for undisclosed ammounts of time and also transactions held, but these are not people I knew personally or have any relation to, so it doesnt serve much to help my point. This day and age it is far too easy to get a REAL payment processor that is reliable and you get your funds next day. For one off transactions like ebay sales, I would accept money order only. Maybe paypal has gotten better, but they have left a bad taste in my mouth. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.

I hate paying people using paypal, I would NEVER accept payment from an individual through paypal. hopefully you can get this all resolved in the long run. ________________________________________ I have proof-read this post 500 times, but I guarantee you'll still manage to find a flaw.
