Well you could listen to that guy and invest your money, or if you're already on the path to a skill set that will land you a nice salary and you don't give a shit "i'd get the 1m". Slight warning however... the car won't be cheap in any sense when you consider gas, repair and maintenance.
I drive a 135i DCT auto every day and wouldn't trade that for any other car other than a 1m.
Enjoy life bud, the car comes with a pussy magnet.
