I'm the Finance Manager of a BMW dealership in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Let's see I went to college at McPherson College (private) in McPherson, Kansas and got my degree in Social Psychology. Once I found out that a job using my degree would net me a stellar $25k a year I decided to reconsider my career. I got into sales instead. I have been in sales every since doing anything from radio spots to internet service. I started working in the car business almost 3 years ago and I have loved every minute of it! I'm now making the kind of money I want and living a great lifestyle. I could have gone back to school for a Master's and make MAYBE $50k...but why when I am now making $80k? A couple more years and a couple more promotions in this business and I'll likely be making $120-150k. Where else can you do that!? Honestly, the numbers are staggering about how many college grads start out selling cars before they start their "serious job" and actually stay in the car business because they are making so much money they don't want to stop. They give you a free car (no car payment, no insurance, no tag expenses) to boot! It's a great gig. The only downside is the hours you put in (50-70 hours a week)...but the money makes it worthwhile. If you can't be a doctor or a lawyer...BE A CAR SALESMAN! ;D
