Let's see. 7 years of college. $40,000 in student loans. 21 years since college graduation. Several jobs working for the man. Got tired of 80 hour weeks for someone else, decided to do it for myself. 100 hour weeks sometimes now. But for me and my family.

Easy.

Hang in there. It's the going, not the getting there that's good.

I'm a lifeguard too, in the summer I make about $7-7.50 an hour, working 40(+) hours a week. Thats plenty of money, but I still have to save for a car and plan for college. Part of the problem right now is I'm not working yet, so I am completely broke.

I guess I'm backwards too. I got my Dad into RC, and always buy him new foamies for fathers day, Christmas, etc.

Oh well, guess I'll just keep enjoying my Katana and my Reflection.

Well i have been in this for a while now(since 7). I am only now just getting the money to get some decent equipment. I just landed an aprenticing job or atleast pretty sure(i go to meet the new boss tomorow). That should be about 15+ dollars an hour. Im talking some serious cash soon. I worked all last summer to afford my 50ccer that im just finishing getting all the equipment. But hopefully by next spring will be able to afford the 100incher o yeah.

I've been getting internships at various companies doing programming work. First two jobs have been 10 bucks an hour, I'm hoping this next one will be around 15-20 an hour. Odds are most kids who have 40%ers have parents that are willing to support them.

I was lucky to get my 40% from my parents and granddparents. I referee soccer matches and I will make almost 200 dollars a weekend when a tournament comes into town. But regular weekends I will make about 30-50 dollars a weekend. We usually have around 5 tournament a year. I did help pay for the smaller stuff for the plane. But there is no way in this world I would have been able to pay for the motor or servos.
