If you wanna be successful, you most take responsibility for your emotions, not place the blame on others. In addition to make you feel more guilty about your faults, pointing the finger at others will only serve to increase your sense of personal accountability. There's always a risk in every investment, yet people still invest and succeed. You must look outward if you wanna be successful in life.

@Janipherlawsonkt8xi 4 месяца назад

The first step to successful investing is figuring out your goals and risk tolerance either on your own or with the help of a financial professional but is very advisable you make use of a professional like I did. If you get the facts about saving and investing and follow through with an intelligent plan, you should be able to gain financial security over the years and enjoy the benefits of managing your money.

Do not put your money into stocks! Open a high yield savings account instead. Make sure you try to go with a bank that’s FDIC or NCUA insured. Sometimes local brick and mortar banks will also have other options like Certificates of Deposit (CD’s) with slightly higher interest. Online banks can also offer slightly higher interest on their high yield savings account because they have less overhead.

I have not had a car payment in over 20 years. Only pay cash for them....but there's something else. When choosing a new vehicle look at depreciation. As an example, my last vehicle was a RAM 2500 diesel truck. I paid 42k for it in 2017. I sold it last year for 43.5k. If you do your research, take care of what you have then once you pay for the first one in cash each subsequent one will be very little out of pocket.

This exactly! This tactic is how I've owned over 20 cars (not expensive ones) and only lost money on two... diesel trucks and 90's/2000's Acura Integras basically don't change in price after their primary depreciation. Integra's have actually appreciated significantly, recently... but I don't think that's going to last long term.

My car broke down the day before I was going back to work (I’m a teacher) and I was so frazzled and so desperate I purchased a car that same day. Big mistake. My old car was used and I had paid it off in a little under two years. I decided to buy a new car this time because I had so many issues with my old car. Now I have high insurance, a high car payment, and a high interest rate. My loan is for 84 months, which I think is crazy. First month was a struggle but I picked up some overtime at work and I do Uber on the side. I can manage it more now, but money is still tight. But my car will be paid off much earlier than 84 months because I know myself. I was aggressive with my student loans and I’ll be aggressive with this loan too.

i have never owned a new car. i drove a used 1997 Corolla until I sadly had to scrap it at junk yard with 290,000 miles in 2018. I then paid $13,000 for a used 2015 Corolla with 19,000 miles. I now work from home and it will take me 40 years to put 290,000 miles on this car..lol I am the only person of all my siblings who have never owned a new car and I am also the only one who is a millionaire. Cars are the biggest waste of money.

My truck was 39k in 2014. I keep my cars until they fall apart. I told my wife we probably will not get another truck because I refuse to pay 80k or more for a truck. Not going tot do it.

I have struggled with dealers for a decade, since my first kid was born and we decided to buy a "good car" to have a reliable transportation for our family. Finally I started engage my brain and paid off my wife's car three years earlier and have left with $19,000 with no interest car loan to my second car, which I'm using as a side hustle Microgreens delivery for my customers and Uber driving.

My only problem with driving a car into the ground is that who wants to buy it once you drive the car into the ground? On the other hand you could drive the car until you reach around 150,000 miles and then sell the car.

There are junk dealers that buy junk cars. You won't get very much money for it, but then again, you wait till a huge repair comes up, and then you sell it for junk, and you dodge that and get something for the husk.

@@sprinkle61 the problem with keeping a car to long is the paint and the interior. Windows stop working, paint starts to fade, and the seat starts having problems like maybe a spring is poking you or the cushion has flattened but the car might still be going strong. This used to be a good first car for a kid but kids don't want to drive as much as the older generations

@@macberry4048 Yes, parts will gradually break, easy things like door handles can be replaced, but it probably wouldn't be worth replacing a seat in an old car. I just deal with non-critical things, I do a lot of fast, cheap, and ugly repairs. I'll zip-tie anything that falls off back on, and I have had a bumper held on with wood screws before.

I hate, hate, hate haggling and know I'm terrible at it. I much prefer going to Carmax where the price is the price and there's no haggling. If you don't like the price, don't buy it; it's that simple. They have also given me by far the most reasonable financing options. I'm not sponsored by Carmax nor work for Carmax. I just like their business model.

@PassportBrosBusinessClass 4 месяца назад

There are two issues that I see here Because mortgages and rent are so difficult to afford you have a lot of people who can’t afford to buy a house and can’t afford to even get an apartment. Perhaps they are living with their parents? They have extra money in their pocket that they will splurge on luxury vehicles since they don’t have anything more expensive to pay for, and that money is burning their pocket. The other issue that I see is that people want to drive to their money even when they have nothing at home to return to. Even if they live in a crappy apartment, would you see them on the road with their Mercedes or BMW, they want you to believe that they are wealthier than they actually are. That is the real tragedy of luxury vehicles. Meanwhile, the super rich like Warren Buffett drive around and used Cadillacs or regular looking SUVs that no one would even realize who’s inside.

It might sound bonkers, but I never bought a car that was more than what was my total monthly income. In my teens I used to drive cars that would cost no more than few hundred dollars. Only paid cash. I slowly upgraded over the years. At the age 36 is got my first new car and still followed my principals.

@@timgibney5590 I prefer to call the people impacted, unfortunately, optimistic or ill-informed, but yes... cheap cars and probably much further down the line houses will be available due to many people's unfortunate decisions. As a person who bought my first house in Jan 2006 at 25 years old, I didn't know the economy was hot or cold... just that these were prices I had to pay to get a house. I'm sure a lot of people entered the market and made honest mistakes like I did, with many saying, "Prices are only going to get higher; this is just how it is," and they'll learn the hard way as I did back then that you should always keep a pulse of ALL factors in the economy. Headcount is the easiest way for companies to "fix" their balance sheets... so when people loose jobs due to low demand after people default, there goes the snowball
