How old were you the first time you drove a Ferrari ?

In the Pleistocene age I was a substiute teacher (while in college) at a high school with a student parking lot full of Ferraris, Maseratis, Corvettes and the like. I used to (still do) think it was irresponsible to send teeneagers to school in such cars.

Someone (perhaps Richard Pryor) said, "Cocaine is God's way of telling you you have too much money." This is another way of delivering that message.

This is the typical result of too much car for too little driver.

I was a bit surprised at all the comments on that page in favour of letting those kids drive. They were little kids, not 14- or 15-year-olds. That could have gone very badly, and then people would be really sorry.

I was 22 when I bought an Aston Martin, nicer than Ferraris I feel - it was a DB-6 and was 10 years old. Paid $2,000 for it and sold it 4 years and 45,000 miles later for $8,000. Was happy for the money I made, now I can cry when I see what they go for. Yup, shudda kept it!
