    No excuses. I work full time making 19/hr in the mental health field which is competitive in my area. I got called for interview 10 minutes after applying for a part time gig at walmart. I kid you not, submitted the application and got called at 730pm 10 minutes later. I was hired in 5 minutes after telling them my availability, for 15 an hour which i was making in my field not too long ago. In the interview they said they pay $23 an hour for supervisor positions. Thats equal to what my supervisor makes. With the two combined, ill make 55k a year instead of 39k Im throwing 1500 bucks at ny debt a month like my life depends on it.

    My wife and I had $1548 in payments between our 2 cars. We've now sold both of them, which cost us a few thousand to settle, but $0 payments going forward. I bought an older Suburban for cash and for the wife we picked up a used Armada. We put aside cash for about 6 months to make the plan work, but we are officially car debt free at this point. Starting next month we will be hammering the last $40k in student loans (down from $105k). Doing this all on $75k a year salary with 3 kids. Living frugally, and a few side hustles, has made a world of difference.

We all were driveway mechanics and vehicles were fairly simple to work on so we did and kept them going. Once computers, electronics, environmental regulations came along in vehicles it was impossible to do much beyond oil changes.

If its not what you are willing to pay walk away! Do you really NEED a over priced vehicle? Same with a house! What is wrong with ppl paying OVER the asking price? Why are you buying a house at the top of the market? Sit back save your money and wait for the housing bubble to burst then buy your house at half price! This is the same ppl who refuse to use coupons when shopping as well and wonder why the heck they are always broke! Rule of thumb. What goes up must come down. It always does.

In those days I hated the negotiation process, so it felt like a relief at the time, but while the car was quite nice (2019 toyota yaris for 25k total), looking back, I could tell I over paid for what the car typically was sold for, and my comfort had its price... but after a few personal experiences that necessitated it (i.e. negotiating an offer for a house), I wised up and gained a bit of confidence on it. Next car I buy will be at a dealership with extra research.

    Usually the people under water are not under water bc they bought the car for over asking or that much over what it's worth. You get this far under water by rolling negative equity into new cars. So you buy a car and a year later you hate it or you're having a baby and think you need an upgrade so you trade it in and buy a new car and roll that 5k into the new car payment but then with interest and depreciation you end up 10k under water real quick. Plenty of people buy a car every few years and just keep rolling the negative equity into a new car. It's wild
