suck it up man, rub some dirt on it and pay your dues. I have had my evo for three years now and I can't tell you how many times it go to the point where I almost sold it, but I kept telling my self to be a man and suck it up.

you dont have to go to college full time man, just chipp away at it. Im 20, work full time, take a few classes here and there. There are actually alot of jobs out there that can be had without a degree. I will be starting with a gov. contracted company making 17 dollars per hour with no degree, working in the IT dept. The job requires a security clearance, and with that clearance and 3 years in the field my possibilites are endless, even without a degree. DONT SELL THE EVO! This car is amazing and once you have one it will never be the same without it.

dude, decide for yourself and do what you have to do. I wasn't going to post in this forum until I read you were looking into Film. I am 20 years old and a senior Film student. So far the field can be very very rough to get a job in, I also have a degree in video which i would highly suggest, with things like the redcam coming out Film is still a passion but slowly but surly dying. It not a bad field tho, I get great side money right now doing wedding video's, if I got popular enough and was able to fill every other weekend with a wedding it would easiely pay my bills and then some. but I am not graduated yet or anything there is just alot of word its a tough industry. More of a hit or miss. I am having financial issues and my evo is for sale on this exact site, decide what you want to do, Its sad but for me I just need something cheaper for now. good luck

Get an extra college loan from the bank which can cover your car and insurance. Once you graduate you pay that off, interest starting 6 month after your done with school.

Definitely make the college choice. The loss of the car can be made up for with the 18yr old girlfriends. In the right position, you'll forget all about it. Make sure you're going to school not only for something you enjoy, but also something that has some decent job prospects. The film industry is not exactly growing at a phenomenal rate, nor is it a guarantee you'll get a decent job. You don't want to invest 4 yrs and still be in a dead end job.

I think you are making a right choice... Go to college, and get ur degree.. Make sure you fill up FAFSA, look for scholarships, because school is expensive...
It's my third year at university, and I just bought an Evo and I pay for my school, with a security job that is paying like a crap... Most of my money for school comes from scholarhips and Financial aid, if nothing else, than get an Loan, and pay it off when you are done with school...
