Boy friend wants a new car. I disagree. Who is right?
>He makes 8 thousand dollars a year. >He currently pays 360/per Month on 22k loan for a Civic SI he bought 9 months ago >He lives at home with minimal expenses >he is a college student
The new car is pic related >new loan will cost him 440 per month >gets 15k for trading in the civic >new loan will total 26k
Is this a bad idea???? I will stand by to provide any other needed information.
>taking out a new loan when the last one's not paid off yet Sure, that sounds like a brilliant idea.
Christopher Nelson
>makes 8k a year He should probably trade in his car for a bike and a bus pass.
Jose Cooper
Tits or gtfo
Leo Garcia
...
Blake King
This is a blue board.
Brayden Walker
buying a car that costs almost 3 times his yearly income was a retarded idea. Buying one that costs more than 4 times as much is retardeder
Michael Allen
Let him learn the hard way. Either he gets bent over and never considers it again, or he survives the Jewish wringer and gets to keep his Subie and you can look back years down the track and think about how you almost talked him out of enjoying his cash.
Ayden Williams
>makes 8 grand a yeae >wants new car This is how poor people stay poor
Oliver Davis
>Never financed anything in their life
It's pretty common for people to trade in a car 2-3 years in to a 5-7 year loan, or even as soon as the loan payoff dips below the current market value.
Juan Howard
Really? I thought it was conservative ideology.
Angel Scott
I fail to see the problem since he's at home. If he's making 8k part time while going to school, it's feasible.
Samuel Edwards
If such were the case then why do black people vote Democrat whilst being poor?
Parker Morris
Obviously because the Republicans are keeping them poor.
Lucas Watson
>makes 8 thousand dollars a year >Eight. Thousand. >Per. Year. >currently pays 360/per Month on 22k loan for a Civic >wants to pay 440/mo >That's almost 3/4 of your gross income going into a car
What the fuck. Is this the beginning of a "Tales from the stealership" story? Why are poor people so fucking stupid? Just get a used shitbox and save your money. Jesus fucking christ.
Ayden Brooks
>8k/year Can you even eat on that?
Adrian Sullivan
>this is what democucks actually believe
Luke Rodriguez
holy shit why do people who make so little money take out such large loans? jesus fuck save up for the things you want. cant reasonably save that much? GOOD. dont buy it and work harder to make more to earn the things you want. bunch of dependent children who cant be fucked to save a fucking penny. paycheck this week? too bad that moneys gone before it hits your bank account because you owe every lender and their kids an arm and a leg.
Liam Turner
>republicans actually believe that i'm a democrat and this is what i actually believe
>Multiply your gross income by 36 percent to determine the maximum monthly debt payments you can make.
>8000/yr = 666/mo >36% of 666 = 239.76
Your boyfriend should be paying at a MAXIMUM $239 per month on car payments, unless he wants to be poor forever.
James Clark
>why do black people vote Democrat whilst being poor
For maximum gibsmedats
Sebastian Diaz

Ryan Williams
>HUR DUR ERRYBUDY DUZ IT! >thinks that makes it a sound financial move
Ryder Adams
It's his money let the nigger buy whatever he wants.
Samuel Ramirez
>gets 15k for trading in the civic Trading in the civic he doesn't actually own?
Jeremiah Harris
Tell him to stop being a retard and spending all his money on depreciating assets. spending all of your years salary on a car is beyond retarded
Colton Kelly
Sell the car privately, pay off your loan, privately buy an older civic for $3000.
Cameron Parker
8k a year? My God. If this guy goes anywhere near a car dealership dump his ass.
Jayden Barnes
But its his hobby!
Colton Martinez
>boyfriend >owns Civic Si >wants WRX
OP and his boyfriend are obviously gay men. Do you really want gay mantits?
Matthew Rivera
>two fun sporty DDs >must be gay Lol okay faggot. Have fun driving that crown vic for the 5 years.
Hunter Long
>his hobby is spending money he doesn't have
Ryan Barnes
>He makes $8k/year >He's taking a $4k loss on a car he just bought It's an awful idea.
Colton Foster
>8k a year Make him buy a cheap shitbox or dump his financially retarded ass.
Jayden White
440 x 12 = 5280$
I use 200$ CND of gas a month, i'll assume half for OP's case (best case scenario). so 1200$ a year 1200+5280=6480$
Now add insurance to that, which should at least be 100$ a month in the absolute best case scenario, but since a WRX is a "sport" car it should be more. Shit i pay 130 on a 2 door civic. So another 1200$ a year.
Total: 7680$ if i'm being conservative.
Have fun you faggots, you retards truly deserve each other.
Cameron Carter
Might want to trade your beta-cuck boyfriend in, if it's his finances why the fuck is your opinion relevant? If it somehow affects your finances, then he is a toxic anchor.
Wyatt Jones
Isn't that almost half the poverty line?
Ian Edwards
>makes 8k per year >Already has a 22k loan >8k per fucking year >8k PER FUCKING YEAR
Gavin Reed
Dump his ass and get with me. I make 64k a year and it only goes up baby.
Landon Kelly
>mfw make $5k / month sometimes depending how much I work
Christopher Rogers
Did op calculate 8k after taxes and such? If he's working part-time, he must have not worked as many hours as he coulda. Assuming he worked part time making 10 an hour for 24 hrs a week he shoulda made at least 11520.... so his parents must really like him for him to front over that money in the short term.
ITT: People who are poor who are financially conservative trying to talk to an OP who's family obviously washes his nuts for him
Ayden Collins
What's he going to school for?
Obviously no one survives wanting shit like si civics and wrexes and makes 8k forever. So this is basically a temporary situation.
Is it make money degree, or are his academic decisions just as retarded?
Obviously the debt is going to outlast the 8k a year shit. Where's it going?
Cameron Ramirez
>8k a year
are you ugly or something? you know you could do better if you are at least 7/10. maybe even 6/10
Logan Garcia
And here I though I was the stupid one for taking out a 26k loan when I make only 42k/yr.
Isaiah Taylor
I make 9k a year and I'm iffy on whether it's even worth paying 150/month on a car.
Jesus Christ. Your boyfriend has already made a stupid fucking decision. You do realize with him spending all his money on his car his life is literally at a standstill and he's not planning on progressing any further right?
Aiden Jackson
democucks actually believe that republicans believe that they're democrats and that's what they actually believe
Gavin Morgan
People believe that democrats and republicans dont believe the same things.
Adrian Morales
>good debt to income ratios my debt to income ratio is basically below -1. sub-zero debt because actually no debt and savings bigger than my yearly income how yuropoor am I?
Kayden Young
>financing a second hand car
People actually do this?
Michael Roberts
nice story I make six figures btw
Jordan Parker
After all that forgot to mention $320.00/yr to spend on OP's significant other Not even $1 /day
Nolan Johnson
Just wait until he's tailgaiting you while in traffic.
Kayden Martinez
kek
Dominic Rodriguez
>tfw I make around $8k/yr since I'm only working the occasional weekend currently >tfw I have no other choice but to do this right now Sure is nice to have someone post about someone else's stupid shit situation to make my life seem better by comparison
Nathan Sullivan
>there are people who make
Leo Ross
You are joking right? He makes 8k a year and wants to get a new car? Come back to us when he makes about 10x that figure. Only then can the two of you safely afford a new car.
You are dating the prime example of stupidity.
Jordan Martinez
>Multiply your gross income by 36 percent to determine the maximum monthly debt payments you can make. This is retarded, this formula is telling me to take 300 out of each 2 week paycheck just for the car payment. There's no fucking way I'd pay 600 a month before insurance, which would easily be another 400 because of my age.
Parker Gutierrez
that's not how you spell bailouts for big banks
Colton Gonzalez
That he can't afford at all because he works a shit burger flipping job and is obviously also wasting his money on snapbacks, vape juice and feeding his gf shit food cause they are both losers of the lower-middle class. Fuck this thread
Adrian Jones
how the hell does he make 8k a year. i'm in college and only work weekends and i make 12k pre taxes.
Bentley Richardson
How the fuck did he get financed only making 8 grand a year? This is a fucking stupid idea. He shouldn't have spent more than 3-5 grand on something old and maybe ugly, but mechanically sound.
And how does he only make 8k? Is he a part time burger flipper??
Aiden Stewart
The last few years it's been the Same here, after some actually pretty kick ass Heath insurance.
Ryan Sanders
>makes 8k a year
And how the fuck do you manage that? What area and job pays you 154+/- a week?
Adam Hughes
I worked about 3-4 days a week for about 3 hours at a time after school and I made around that much weekly.
This was in highschool btw.
over 15 years ago.
David Sullivan
Yes please go deeper in debt on something that deprecates like a montherfucker.
I make $120K a year and I keep a car payment below $450... how? because I never get big loans and I make sure I have equity or a car paid off before I get a newer one.
Austin Rogers
>Boy friend wants a new car. I disagree. Who is right?
He’s right – he does want a new car. You disagree that it’s a good idea, not with the fact that he wants a new car.
If he’s close to graduating and isn’t going to take a break between college and work, then sure, it can work. The usual rules of thumb for car price vs. income don’t really apply if you know your income is about to jump up. It’s still a dumb idea, of course. He already has a nice car for a college student – what’s bothering him about it?
Don’t marry him.
Luis Ramirez
And I bet you bought a brand new Corvette with money you made selling lemonade and mowing lawns, grandpa.
Asher White
Mommy and Daddy cosigned his privileged gay ass that's how. He would also need them to cosign for new loan if they were good parents they would say no
Levi Williams
truth
Jaxson Diaz
>pretty much never work >HURR OMG I'M SO POOR ;~;
m8 shut the fuck up. That's honestly pretty decent if you only have to work weekends for it.
Adam Walker
This, how does he even eat?
Dylan Roberts
So what, you're making about $15 an hour? It's pretty easy to end up making less than that if you don't want to work labour and don't have a degree.
Robert Cox
>equity >car
Pick one and only one
Carson Young
Ue didn't say the car was equity Learn to read
>and yes banks Consider cars as equity

Jace Bennett
this entire thread is bait 8k a year is literally less than a NEET pulls on autismbux
Ian Ross
Holy fuck if op exists and dates the said bf that always exists
Do you want some retard in 50k of debt to father your children? Why not go straight for a nig
Christian Stewart
This is exceptional bait
Luke Bennett
>makes 8k a year >college student >taking out loans for "race" cars Not a bright one is he?
Levi Campbell
Might be more true than you think if he's a college student. University only pays out our IT staff 13$ /hr with a max of like 12 hours a week, and they're probably on the higher end of the student pay grade. Kid is still a retard, but students who do research or work on campus have very little 'rights' as workers go, hell work-study only guarantees ~$5k/year here in Cali.
Joseph Smith
Would you believe me if I said I like his personality?
Sebastian Brooks
On top of student loan debt. Just use Uber at school, beater throwaway car for home.
Benjamin Nguyen
>all these people falling for this obvious b8
Mason Williams
I thought I was retarded taking a $16k loan making 40k/yr
Hudson Walker
>He lives at home with minimal expenses Step it up desu baka
Benjamin Powell
I WISH DIS WAS BAIT.
Mason Gomez
Don't let him do it OP. Unless he is living at home and his parents are paying for it + insurance, it is downright retarded.
Nathan Roberts
12 hours a week? that's not even a real fucking job
Adam Turner
They are paying for insurance + all living expenses.
He only pays for his current car + fun spending.
Brayden Wood
>Makes 8k a year >Financed a car already >Wants to finance to another for more
Oliver Sanchez
I saved up for 3 years working part time to buy my '06 STi, so if I can do it, that fag can do it, too
Julian Hernandez
Delayed gratification is hard.
Christian Lopez

good lord... keep all weapons and sharp objects away from this guy.. He's a ticking time bomb.
Hunter Murphy
Ugh, just pointing out that at some point in a young man's life he has to realize when he's going down the road of being a dead beat bitch.
Liam Moore
yeah bro me too my portfolio's looking to fly next year
Jose Young
Yeah and if you can work on your patience you might be able to unfuck yourself out of being a "millennial". Me I'm working on getting a better job and using my shit job to amass a large amount of shitboxes and repairs to my inherited home.
Nolan Barnes
Jan Vincent don't do it I know it's you, I already told you youre a dumb motherfucker
