      True. Kind of like how I had this roommate named Joseph and while I was dating my ex he managed to trip and land on our glass coffee table and get shards of Glas in his eye. We took him to the hospital and they asked me some questions. It was then that I realized that I didn't know where he moved from prior to living with ne or anything else about him for that matter. I had to go out of town for a week and my ex would check in on him. He got a gotton eyepatch while he made his recovery but he and my ex fell for each other when I was gone. They ended up getting married and I never saw them again. What I'm trying to say is that if it hadn't been for cotton eyed Joe, I'd been married a long time ago. Where did come from? Where did you go? Where did you come from cotton-eyed Joe?

Car came out to be 26k. 2 months later I lost my job and haven’t been able to find anything that pays similarly. I’ve been using savings to pay my bills, but I’m completely out now.

However, a prepaid lease so you still don't have a car payment.

I ended up selling my Daily driver and paid 1k out of pocket. My other vehicle got totaled. And I only kept one car (which my mother drives, as she cannot afford a vehicle and is my gift to her to have something reliable) and I got myself an old 1988 civic (I've always been a mechanic so fixing/repairing is not an issue) sometimes things just play out, but I refuse to get a repo on my credit.

Used cars are NEVER worth what you owe on them unless you make a BIG down payment, like 30% - 40%, and don't drive it a lot.

    Can someone please help me understand. Who buys a car of 10k of more from a private seller? I never understood that. Dealership yes but who is regular life?

    There's ANOTHER book out--the so-called 'blue book' that says the car will depreciate over time, so the longer it takes to get it fixed and then sold, the less money the caller will receive.

    Get your bill in the mail. It says coupon on it. Endorase the back and write in the amount. Its a live Money Order. Dont send a check with it. That would be double dipping.

    I haven't heard such a bad call in a while. Dave is able to hear the caller, but he is not paying attention. It's an Audi with problems! Those repairs are costly. The dealership isntbtrying to repair the car and take a loss on it. Right now, the car is worth nothing.

    A check engine light on!! Good luck selling it for 13k. NO ONE wants a check engine light! Period.

    I work with two Engineers that pay more than $1,200/mo for their Trucks. I drive a 2007 Jeep Grand Cherokee and 2008 BMW. That allows me to contribute my complete 15% to retirement, and carry some Index Funds on the side, and our IRA that we want to pay 20% down on a home one day. My wife doesn’t work. There’s no need to, because we planned well. So all my off time is spent together, working on my marriage, and yes-Marriage is Work, and we should all be WORKING OVERTIME THERE!!!!! 50% of Marriages END. I invest time and money consistently to make sure kindle that flame. May God Bless You Abundantly or Show you the way to Abundant Blessings as He’s shown me.

    I go to 3 car auctions and the credit unions sell the cars cheaper than wholesale.
