Rich people stay rich by being stingy sister. plus, since when were we in a recession? Last I checked the economy is chillin

Who said I had it like that b

I blew my twitter fortune on strippers, cute bitches, outfits, cocaine, & weed. Oh, & a lawyer for a reckless driving charge & my insurance for crashing my previous whip.

I can't afford to pay 40 stacks for a car. I definitely have a couple thousand, well, MORE than a couple for a down payment to finance/lease the car

that's exactly why I opted out of the Benz....i never said my pockets were deep enough to constantly pay for servicing a car...especially if I'm coming out of pocket $500+ on more than one occassion... & as far as not owning property and buying a 30k car making me retarded...One has nothing to do with the other

the Benz CLA, Beamer 3 series, and Audi A3 are the entry level luxury cars. It was an ingenious move to sway buyers that were purchasing the more expensive low end sedans like the Nissan Maxima...

So if I put a down payment on a car, whether I finance it or lease it...its do-able with/without property. A lot of people show up to dealerships and put 3, 5, stacks on a car. I'm throwing down more than that

So instead of paying $300-$400/month for the car, I'll end up paying $150-$200...which is very doable for me. & If it's leased, I have the option to switch whips because the dealerships already recouped the depreciated value of the car. The trade off being that i'll never actually completely own the car & my insurance goes up

Well, I've had the same car for 5+ years. & When I got this car, it was already used for 3 years. It's an 06 model. I just think its time to spoil myself tbh... It's definitely not all the money I have, which is why i'm doing it. & I understand these cars are on the pricier side, which is why I'm looking at different angles to negotiate the deal i want.

i appreciate the input tho

& I'm also reading a few books on investments like Rich Dad Poor Dad & the Intelligent Investor. I've always had that auto-pilot, make money that makes money type of mentality. Yeah I'll be taking a financial risk, but i'm willing to take that risk.

Get a Honda man. The Honda hybrid models are fucking completely inexpensive to maintain. they will last you a LONG time if you take care of it. I know a guy who owns a 97' Civic with 450k miles and nearly all of it is original parts. No major rebuilds just the occasional calipur sticking and shit like that.
