Yeah, his unyielding dogma about living a no-credit-score lifestyle was one of the things that we found particularly off-putting. Sorry, Dave, but I still don’t have $250,000 in cash just lying around to buy a house. Oh, and the airline and the hotel don’t care that I’m debt free—they still want a credit card number.
In only 6 minutes you say... (reevaluates if he finally needs to buy an Instapot)
That’s all? $1,340 is on the low side of ownership drain.
The CC’s supposed repair costs was a deterrent but the prospect of living with a MB isn’t? Huh. Interesting logic.
This is the dumbest car ever. I love it.
You can get a mortgage without a credit score. It’s called manual underwriting.
Get a credit card as early as possible. Keep credit card expenses between $50-$100 per month (never more) and pay it ALL off EVERY billing statement. Build your credit early and set yourself up for buying a house.
DO NOT SPEND YOUR STUDENT LOAN MONEY ON ANYTHING BESIDES YOUR EDUCATION. You do not need a $600 mountain bike. You do not need to spend $150 dollars on framing your Kramer poster because it would be “funny”.
That was pretty, pretty, pretty good
I’ve seen those too, and yeah, it can be pause for concern, but the vast majority (probably 99.9999%) are as described by the two commenters above you.
When I first started selling cars, I used to be like “eww, ex-rental” when I’d see them in our inventory, but then I realized that they more often than not were better…
To each their own, but I would NEVER purchase a vehicle from a brand that has a questionable future here in the US. It has an ever shrinking dealership network for when you do need warranty work, selling dated vehicles to people who can barely make their payments that are usually mated with a BHPH lot. That isn’t…
At least you don’t have the “Hello Kitty” style Compass.
I’ve always been partial to these:
THIS 100% ON THE HUMIDITY. I moved from being GA born and raised to NEOH 5 years ago and openly laugh at the idea that according to people here its “so hot” during the summer.
The rising prices of rent are definitely a problem and I am not disagreeing with what you’re saying necessarily... but you don’t have to live in Decatur or Midtown to hop on the Marta line. You can live in Bankhead or East Lake or East Point at a feasible price-point but for some reason (racism, again?), people don’t…
As someone who grew up in and around the City of Atlanta, my best piece of advice is to head to the airport, and get the first ticket out of there. Of all the places I’ve lived and visited, it is without a doubt my least favorite. I could go on, but I’ll spare everyone my rant and focus on tips for those that, if by…
People in this town drive fast. Very fast. If you’re not going to drive fast, GET OUT OF THE LEFT LANE. Oh, and leave early for wherever you’re going. Like really early. There is always traffic. Give yourself an extra 30 mins to whatever your gps or directions tell you is your ETA.
Somebody is going to have me burned at the stake for this but... Chrysler 300c.
But is it grounded to the ground?
