i don't want you to prove anything. i'm just a skeptic and don't believe you.

Truck $350
Civic $350
Corolla $250
Insurance on 4 vehicles: $450

it will then look like this:

Truck: $300
S2k: $450 - $500
Insurance on 3 vehicles: $349

I've always wanted a yellow S2000, my dream car, i found one but never thought it would be in my price range, and it just so happens this one is slightly out of my price range by $2000. I was going to get a mini cooper S, but since i saw the S2k, i might as well go for something that i really really want.
what are you doing with all those vehicles? And didn't you sell the civic to buy the truck?

Can you tell me your financial secret.

Hmm I am guessing you don't have things called health insurance, 401k, savings, etc. Because most normal people who make $8 an hour base usually only get around $5 or less an hour after taking away the money for insurance, 401k, taxes, etc.

Yes you probably got the car, I would recommend going to church and praying something doesn't screw up because you don't have any fallbacks. Repo men don't care about S2ks, they just care about getting what is yours.

Her husband is in the military (I presume, from the E-5 paygrade she announced) so he gets somewhere AROUND $24k a year + some housing money, and some food money, and insurance is all taken care of, as is retirement (after 20 years active, you can retire and start receiving money immediatly, or afte you put your owed years in, at age 60 you start to receive your retirement pay)


Still outta the realistic price range IMO

So it proves my point that sometimes people just buy stuff without thinking about the consequences.
