As long as you keep adequate oil in it, as well as other maintaince, you should be ok.. My fiance has an old 93 grand am, and it has had a leaky head gasket for 5 years or more, its not bad, maby a quart of oil every 3-4 weeks... and it has been fine, just never let it go low or you will starve a bearing...

Well, just be careful if the oil and coolant start mixing. Then you might run into some problems, as water and coolant are not as good of a lubricant as oil. -=B-=

You could warp the cylinder head or block deck, then it will need to be milled "true" before repair. This is fairly common.
Oil and/or coolant could enter the combustion chamber and cause smoke from the exhaust, or worse, wash down the cylinder walls and damage the bore/rings.
Head gasket kits are cheap, and semi easy to do with the right tools, so I wouldn't run on it too long. But check your fluids weekly, and don't beat on it, and you should be ok
