He most likely has a lot of other stops to make along the way. When I shipped my S2000 from Minneapolis to Biloxi it took 6 days; transports are generally setup as first on-last off.

the way they do it with the bulk of cars coming to dallas they load entire trucks just for dallas. they make no other stops on the way. a lot of people being pcs'ed to fort bliss and fort hood.



but anyway...........


HERRO!!!!


she got here this morning. the drive home was........interesting. the speed limit sign says 60, flow of traffic says 80. hmmmmmmm


either way i will probably be in jail before anyone knows it. im used to taking this beast up to 120 on the daily when i was in germany. 60-80 just feels like city cruising speed, lol

I have a question to ask those of you with investment plans and portfolios. I just started my new job. I have various sources of income and debt. I'm looking to get every single one of my month expenses, income sources, etc together and take all of it to someone who can look at all the numbers and my personal expectations for investments, and lay out a plan for me. I'm wanting things such as the amounts to pay to what debt each month, how much to put into savings, how much to invest, how soon I can get into a house, etc. The real question I would like answered is, if I part out my car and sell it, and pick up another vehicle, how many months ahead in my portfolio can I get? I would like to know how much sooner I can get into a house and a whole load of other things.

So the real question I have for you guys, is who do I talk to? Is a certified financial planner what I need? Or maybe just an investment advisor? I'm a little lost where to begin. I know I can manage numbers and things afterwards, but I would like professional advice to develop a plan of action. Also, do any of you guys have personal recommendations? Any input would be appreciated.
