      AMEN! I've driven Mercedes cars for the past 24 years. Bought my first one when I was 19. But not new ones; OLD ones - 1980s diesels. Back when they built good cars. My daily driver is 37 years old, paid for, restored to near-new condition, no emissions inspections, no check engine light, just a solid old car that any idiot can work on himself. I have another one with 752K miles on it. Good old cars back then. I see the flashy newer cars pass me, and I smile, imagining how much their payment is every month, lol!!

      School definitely is not for everyone and it can cause debt if you jump in blindly. However if you get a degree in a high paying career, you can pay that debt off easily with your income. This is especially true if you take study seriously by not flunking subjects and semesters, working a part time job while you study and paying it off as you go. Everyone in my family has followed this formula and been successful with it

      The cost to fix her Ford Fusion would have conservatively been only about $600-800. Why in the name of all that's sacred she would get rid of that car to buy a $20,000 Ford Fusion? If I heard right, wasn't the "newer" Ford Fusion only a few years newer than the car she got rid of?

      @@robindear5043 it's a woman thing and an emotional decision. I remember when my mom's water heater went out and as we were mopping up the water because the tank busted, she started shouting that she was going to sell her house. I told her that's like selling your car over a dead battery. If women would take an interest in fixing things themselves, they would think more analytically. The only way to have a car that never needs brake work is to not own a car or trade yearly.

    • @robindear5043
      @robindear5043 4 ปีที่แล้ว +65

      I think she was being shortsighted in her decision, and now regrets it. It may have taken a few days, maybe even a few weeks, but she could have inquired around and found a mechanic or shop that could've fixed her car for a reasonable price. I have known just as many men who make emotional, "spur of the moment" decisions, then later, after the smoke clears, they regret it. This has nothing to do with gender. Will she negotiate with the dealership to return the car, even though her 30 days have passed? I doubt it. She didn't mention it, but I wonder if she traded her car in for the $20,000 one, or has it sitting in her driveway?

      Oh yes, Dave is so great to listen to, well informed and straight to the point, but when someone calls in who needs gentler advice he's capable of giving that too. He's the old fashioned advice we all need. I'm so glad he's put so much content on youtube for free, it's helped me a lot to learn about personal finance and get a solid plan for my life

I cut my teeth on him but when I met my best and only wife, she invited me to her guest seat at a Financial Peace University sponsored by her brother. How could you NOT love a woman that can save!

      @Aaron Fisher I thought I was reading about myself there. 8k debt with a 30k job. Guess I have to tighten up the ship myself and get out under this.

    I listen to this and I am FLABBERGASTED at this amount of debt even possible; especially for people under 30. The financial environment in the US seem predatory. I live in the Caribbean and at 38 have zero debt and never had a credit card; university is free ie no student loans (i have a PhD), we import foreign used cars i.e dirt cheap transport, health care is free ( i had an emergency c- section and paid $0 out of pocket), lived with my parents till I could afford to buy a simple starter apartment. I just cannot believe these figures and how desperate i'd feel with that looming over my head.

      Once they experience life outside the US, not merely as tourists but as ex pats for a year or two, most Americans choose to stay abroad rather than return to live in the US. It's a harsh, predatory society even towards its own.
