I wouldn't do that. It's a good living but no benefits. I made the money to buy the cars on stock investments and I was one of the lucky ones. I bought a few stocks really cheap in Nov '08...Ford for $1.11 a share and a bank in Nashville I was familar with for $1.42 a share along with other companies to keep me diversified...never all your eggs in one basket...the stock market was spiraling downward but some dumb*ss hunch told me to buy. I sold everything at 8X-14X what I paid and I kept some stuff for the long run.

It was a unique set of circumstances 4 years ago in the stock market and not likely to be repeated in my lifetime. I'm glad I took advantage of it...but I certainly can't retire ever probably.
