FINALLY 18!!!!!!!!!!!

Only problem now is, I don't know what to do. Not too much I couldn't do before, and most of it's kinda embarrassing. (You know what I'm talking about, those dirty stores/"dance" clubs) any ideas? Can i get my CDL now?

Start contributing to a 401K. You'll thank yourself at 30, 40 and 50 when your nest egg is a whole lot bigger then your peers.

Do what dennis says (fill truck with gas and take off) But while your doing that be sure to put something into a 401 plan.. Do this every year no ifs, ands or butts.. Later in life you will be glad you did.

Did the first part myself way back in the mid 60s. Had a 56 chevy and traveled the states.
Laid in a ditch in Nevada and rebuilt the trans. It was the best of times, untill i got the call from Uncle Sam.

You want excitement - go to another country - that you can drive to - in North America. If you can't find excitement doing this then you are doing something wrong!

Keep it Rubber Side Down!

On the other hand you could forget the 401k and spend all of your time and money on getting filthy rich so you don't need one. Ask an Enron employee what a 401k can do for your retirement.
