But if you live like a poor college student while you are working, then sure, a Lambo is attainable. Actually, in the south you see something similar with people living in a busted old trailer park with a brand new SS camaro in the driveway. (And by driveway, I mean the patch of dirt and gravel out front).

The real question is, 5 years down the road will your priorities still be the same? Maybe, maybe not.

In the end it's your life, do what makes you happy.

Yeah I did mention that my priorities would probably be different by then. I guess I do live a sort of Spartan lifestyle when it comes to things like going out. I'm not talking about a new Lambo here though. You can get a 5-6 year old Gallardo for under $100k, which is the only way I would be able to get one anyway. I'm more likely to get a GT-R anyway.
