Got my car loan down to 1830 today
That’s all I owe. 250 a month (which is something you can not find at all nowadays). By this time next year I’ll be done with the payments and will be over the moon happy about it 🍾🍾🍾

That's awesome! I'm terrified of buying my next car. I bought this one with bad credit 7 years ago, for $300 a month, paid it off a few years ago, so I'm running it to the ground...because even though I actually have pretty good credit now (almost 200 points higher than when I bought this car), everything seems to indicate I'll be slapped with even larger monthlies than that one...and I can't quite afford that atm

Cars are expensive I couldn’t imagine getting a new car especially in this economy and I live alone. Imma have to ride that fucker till the wheels fall off honestly

In the same boat completely. Also live alone. And definitely riding current vehicle into the ground.

It doesn’t make sense for me to have a roommate only because of the rent system. A two bedroom is 1700 before utilities you might as well live by yourself (in my opinion and I’m in the south)
