burning oil

when i accelerate my car burns oil (blue smoke) would that be a sign of leeky piston rings? if not it might be that the engine has 344986 miles on it and i dont no if it has ever been rebuilt, any ideas why else it might be that makes it burns oil.

yeah, when i got my car inspected before i bought it the guy who did the inspection told me it was most likely my valve seals. it burns a fair bit of oil, but rather than fix it, i just been dumping no smoke in it and waiting to get my zc in there

i just plan on running it until i get enough money for a b16a or until it stops running now, cause i dont have any money to fix whatevers wrong with it and burning oil shouldnt hurt the engine to badly
