buy a 2-3 year old car.
let another clown eat the depression.

drive it for 1 year, see if it is "really" that important for you.

keep it or sell it.

90% of "i must have this car" people i know pretty much realize after a few weeks, that is it not that fulfilling and it doesn´t make you happier.

but if you like cars, why not just do not buy it new, that turbostupidity.

I am buying used

But paying off almost $60K in student loans and paying off my eclipse (15K) and landing a high paying but somewhat unstable job I can't help but think maybe the money can go somewhere else more productive.

Case in point I could've invested more in bitcoin and held back in 2017 instead of panicking and selling that summer when it peaked that December

>> No.16237687

It's worth noting if I didn't spend money on stupid shit I only spend about $2.5K. That includes going out and eating out with friends and such.

But bare necessities, I really only need to spend like $1.5K month, if that

well i can tell you that much.
this is how >>>they<<< hold you in the system running.

>entering the job market with debt
>get somewhat of a decent job
>bring people to have even more debt

the only missing part is a 400.000$ house and you are set up for 30 years of work slavery which you cant escape because you have debt.

this is why i never had debt in my whole life.
i do not care about my job or unstable times.
because i have money in the bank ( portfolio ) and drive a shit ass car.
and if some idiot drives into it, im not even mad.

if i feel like driving something fancy, i just rent it for some time.

Dude thats 5K a month you can save! If you do that for 10 months you'd have $50K! Buy some stocks!

>> No.16238048

Ok, but how much LINK you have? I'd buy more LINK every month than pay some car's lease. At least for another year. You know very well opportunities like these don't come often. You have a good paying job so you can comfily and patiently increase your stack by dollar cost averaging every month. The general rule of buying a car is that the price of the car should be about of 5% of your net worth. 10% absolute max.

Incoming boomer advice: Don't do it. Even used you're still looking at what, $50k? That is a fucking ridiculous amount to throw at a rapidly depreciating asset considering your salary. Buy something reliable and used for $15k and invest the $35k you saved in index funds. If you can make 7% per year, you'll have over $250k in 30 years because you made the smarter choice. Future anon will thank present anon for not being an idiot. Also, you're probably going to drive that Challenger hard and wear it out a lot faster than a Corolla or some shit, and those performance parts are a lot more expensive to replace, so your upkeep costs are going to be high with a car like that. Just rent one for a weekend.
