It's again time to unload and delete some photos in my screenshots. Most of these photos could take an entire blog post but for Screenshot unload I like to keep it simple.
Starting with this
I saw this last night and thought this was incredible. Look at the price difference of the two!. Now I know some vehicle expert is going to try to tell you why the "glorified" town and country is so much more than the base dodge caravan but consider this. What is it that you need on the two what can you afford and then work on your wants. You'll probably find out that they both have the same engine transmission back up camera dvd player reliability ratings room and may even look almost identical inside. So why would someone say they want to pay an aditional 11 thousand dollars? My opinion, Just because it's newer and somehow that makes them feel good that they could afford something so expensive. Makes them feel like they have just graduated to an upper class. Soon like some they realize they have to budget to extremities to achieve that payment and then sell it for less than they own just so they can keep their house or eat. Thats no way to live. Keep your car loans at 5k and under and that's ONLY if you have to.
Switching topics.
This showed up in my news feed and brought back old memories.
When we bought our house on a short sell the person who attempted to buy it before us lost their opportunity due to a missed car loan payment. I find this very interesting for 2 reasons, 1- I wonder what happened to the person who fell through on their part of the agreement, and 2- I find it interesting that it's still up for sell. Does this mean the real estate market is slowing down or signs that people's paycheck to paycheck spending habits are catching up to them finally forcing them to realize they may have bought to much house or can't afford a house due to degrading credit? Interesting.
I think this next one has to be related.
I'm almost positive they are. It would be more interesting if they weren't and raise more questions.
This again is another young married couple going into excessive debt over a house. More than likely the story went something like this. They both work income is high buy a house mom gets pregnant mom stops working can't afford house go on assistance and are forced to sell the house. OK that is high speculation but it does happen.
Oil prices are falling and so are gas prices. I already wrote once on the effects of putting to much trust on a high paying job and then being forced to sell everything. Later I proved there was submittal evidence pointing toward church assistance when a particular family was still living in a 9 bedroom house driving a new car keeping their horse and their ATV.
So I think we will be seeing more of these classifieds
Look unless you have a bank account with over 100000 you have no arguments when it comes to owning that expensive vehicle.
Your just plain and simply stupid for financing a vehicle that expensive.
I found this just the other day
Top paragraph I wrote a topic on titled expensive truck owners.
My in laws are also in debt go on vacations and have (and will agaim) file for bankruptcy. (Remember last post? Card declined at a rush concert )
I have wrote Several blog post on too many young families buying too much house resulting in living on welfare. Sometimes even keeping their house.
Again this proves alot of my points.
I have made the argument before that when you fall on hard times and are asking for welfare that Animals including dogs and horses SHOULD be considered expenses. It's unfortunate that so many families get away with this. Animals are NOT human they are animals and HUMANS come first. If you didn't plan well or you fell on hard times by accident you and your family come first so sell your higher priced possessions and get rid of your pets.
I have to shake my head. They just don't get it. Get rid of the dog you are in dire straits. You and your child come first! If the homeless is offering you a room with no pets you get rid of that dog!
Too late to be a canadate but I found this add interesting.
In an older post I told you I was convinced it was woman who convinced themselves and their husbands through denigrating influence that they're not going to live a life in slumps. They were going to have newer stuff because they were too pretty or too popular to be driving something older. This is a prime,example of that. There's one other thing I'll point out. Notice that it was BRAND NEW in September and she has already put 21000 miles on it? Doesn't that say something? She had ALOT of free time to put on that many miles on it which means she was having a vacation every week. I'm guessing she had this car for 34 to 36 weeks before posting this add. Thats 583 to 617 miles a week! A. You really think she thought about oil changes and B. You realy think situation changed? She probably blew through her student loans and a fun time but is realizing uhm she has to work for money.
I found this next truck intesting
That's slot of miles. My main reason for posting this is to further prove cars can go well beyond 200 thousand miles. Even if you have a few problems or need to rebuild or replace an engine or a transmission cars can give you alot more value if your willing to put time and patience in purchasing. Now that being said this truck is not worth what he's asking. I don't care what kelly says I wouldn't pay more than 800 for it.
I think that's it for this screenshot unload. It took me two weeks to finish this and I have a few new ideas for blog post. One is currently being tested as we speek. I also have 1 or 2 post still pending on my vacation. Also there's only 6 days left to get an I can't afford it award out. Time to get busy.
