    Best of luck to you. If this is your way in, so be it. Learn all you can and make the best of it. It's not forever, it's a means to an end.

    Let me guess, and mind you, this is only a guess. You failed at a lease/purchase.

    I don't think I would. I don't gamble as much anymore. If I play, it's to win. That's why I do craploads of research before I dive in.
