Could you imagine me speeding around in this workhorse right here?

http://chicago.craigslist.org/sox/cto/4849705005.html

This wouldn't be too bad either, I'd just have to pay to get the windows tinted.

These links have expired... What type of wheels are we talking about here? It has been 6 months, did you get anything?

On the last oil change I had for it, somebody forgot to put the coolant cap back on for my 1994 Oldsmobile Cutlass Supreme. The engine overheated on my way home from the bar and smoke was billowing up from underneath the hood. I was in a position of needing a replacement car quick and purchased a 2005 Dodge Stratus with 120K miles. It's another stop gap but it's nice having a car that isn't 20 year old.

I believe the cars in those links were a Trans Am and a Camarro.

St. Pete chicks love a guy in a 12-year-old dodge stratus.

If you're moving to Florida, have you considered a Mazda Miata or Honda Del Sol?

 

[SeveredHorseHeads]

Your grocery store bank teller job is willing to transfer you to Florida and cover your tuition? Haven't you been working there for like a month?

 

[Capella]

Also: have you considered not moving to Florida?

And shouldn't you make sure you have the Associates Degree that you've been working on for six years before you enroll in your next school?

Sweet. How much a semester?

$7,736.50 per semester out of state.

$2,279.50 per semester in state.

Which are you? And do you have that kind of money?

I'll be considered out-of-state until January 2017.

I plan on starting here the Spring Semester (January 2016). Which gives me about 6 months to save up money for the $7,736.50 semester (which will be reimbursed). My current job will pay $5,200 in tuition reimbursement so that cuts the bill down to about $2,236 for the Spring semester. I should receive a tax credit of $2,500 for tuition costs accrued in 2015 that will come back on my 2016 tax return. So my first semester will be reimbursed 100%.

From there, I will have from May - August to save up my next $7,736.50 for the 2016 Fall Semester.

After that, I will be a Florida Resident in 2017 and my yearly tuition will be $4,559 a year which my employer will pay 100% of.

How will your job in the state you're in now reimburse you for going to a FL school? I know you've talked about transferring from work, but you'll have worked there for less than a year. Have you asked them about this? Also, do you have the 7 grand? The thing about getting reimbursed is you still need to pay up front.

And don't jerk around like you have been in school. Most places won't reimburse your money unless you get a certain grade in the class.

I'm sure that many of you are very nice people down there, but have you seen the dip####s that make the news? This is like a match made in heaven.

Remember when England shipped all of its inmates to Australia? The rest of the country has decided that it's kind of like that. But for dip####s.

Did you get verification from the school that this is how it works? Generally, you do not receive residence status when you are in school.

Yeah. I believe that's like a major stipulation on getting residency. Otherwise, every student would be paying in-state prices by their sophomore year.

Fifth Third Bank seems fairly respectable so far. I feel pretty confident that I can get transferred somewhere successfully. Even if I have to drop down to part-time until something opened up or I found another bank job. I'll have been there 8 months in December. I hope I've got enough work equity built up by that point.

As of right now, I don't have the 7 grand straight up but I wouldn't theoretically be paying that bill until May of 2016 so I have time to accumulate.

The rule of thumb with 5/3 is that they'll reinburse a C or better for a Bachelors. For a Masters they only reinburse a B or better. If you get an A you get even more money back.

I hate to break it to you, but they aren't going to transfer you to FL so they can pay for your school. Not being mean, just being realistic.

From my understanding, if I'm working full-time, have a FL DL, and have proof of residency for a year most schools will let me get the in-state tuition. It's something I've read I might have to fight for but can probably con somebody into giving me.

Otherwise I'll have to sign for some student loans.

I don't see why not. They're either going to pay for my school in Florida or in Illinois. As long as it's applicable to the banking field (Economics) it's an employee benefit. It'd be like them telling me I can't have a 401K.

Colleges and Universities are very strict on these things. There is a certain amount of time you have to be there and hoops you have to jump through. I posted a link in this thread or somewhere else at one point that laid out much of the FL law. However, you just mentioned going to work PT, which will prevent residency based on your own understanding which is missing a lot of pieces.

If you are not enrolled in school, then working full time with a FL drivers licence and proof of residency would work. You need to get down to FL tomorrow, establish residency and try to enroll for Fall 2016.

My other option is to finish my Bachelors at Baker College where I am 100 Quarter Hours away from my Bachelors in Business Administration: Accounting Concentration. I will outline the key differences between each decision:

Cost:

Olivet Nazerene University (74 - 76 Semester Hours)

Year 1: $7,974 = 42 Credit Hours

Year 2: $4,134 = 32 Credit Hours

Total: $12,108

1.76 Years

Baker College (100 Quarter Hours)

Year 1: $5,444 = 64 Quarter Hours

Year 2: $0 = 36 Quarter Hours

Total: $5,444

1.56 Years

how in the heck are you able to take 21 hours per semester? I had an 18 hour semester that almost killed me. There is no way with an accounting major. Oh, hold, i forgot who i was talking too.....By the way, are you accepted to the school of business or are you still doing the general studies?

I didn't want to ignore this. These estimates factored in going to school year round including summer classes. I'm going for my BA in Economics.

I want to start out by saying I hope Em figures everything out and gets his degree while living in FL, commuting to 5/3 in his Miata with the top down, fighting off chicks on his way to the gym to break the deadlift world record. I really do.

I just don't see it ever happening.

I was planning on it.I'd like the trifecta of Associates in Accounting, Bachelors in Economics, and Masters in Business Administration. Depending on what career field I wind up in things can change.

I have interest in dealing stock at some point, being a stockbroker would be a really cool job.

Edit:

Do you think the Economics degree is a bad idea? I think it's broad enough to get my foot in the door in many different business markets and then I could specialize further on my Masters.

how in the heck are you able to take 21 hours per semester? I had an 18 hour semester that almost killed me. There is no way with an accounting major. Oh, hold, i forgot who i was talking too.....By the way, are you accepted to the school of business or are you still doing the general studies?

I didn't want to ignore this. These estimates factored in going to school year round including summer classes. I'm going for my BA in Economics.

Are you going to get a masters degree? I hire econ majors out of Berkeley that are worthless for a year. I have no idea why they don't offer a real degree....money grab IMO.

I was planning on it.I'd like the trifecta of Associates in Accounting, Bachelors in Economics, and Masters in Business Administration. Depending on what career field I wind up in things can change.

I have interest in dealing stock at some point, being a stockbroker would be a really cool job.

Edit:

Do you think the Economics degree is a bad idea? I think it's broad enough to get my foot in the door in many different business markets and then I could specialize further on my Masters.

Let's win the first game of the season before we start planning the championship victory parade.

If MC Gas Money can be CEO of a thriving t-shirt corporation, then Eminence can get a master's degree. This is America!

Have you considered a Vespa for Florida?

Em - I think you need to give the University of Kansas a solid look. We have banks and Walgreens, a conservative legislature, multiple breweries, and pretty coeds. The Kochs fund the Economics department and we have a wicked good basketball team.

Westboro folks are only 30 minutes away if you would like to protest some homosexuality.

My other option is to finish my Bachelors at Baker College where I am 100 Quarter Hours away from my Bachelors in Business Administration: Accounting Concentration. I will outline the key differences between each decision:

Cost:

Olivet Nazerene University (74 - 76 Semester Hours)

Year 1: $7,974 = 42 Credit HoursYear 2: $4,134 = 32 Credit HoursTotal: $12,108

definitely not a accounting or finance degree. You will take two basic accounting and two basic finance classes (assuming catalog is the same as when I went to school). Not very useful in the real world imo. Many more doors will open with a acct/fin degree.

For some reason, this made me realize that Em doesn't even have an Associates in Accounting. Wasn't it just some general business degree?

I do agree that accounting or finance will open more doors.
