[#1] Spartan Tip of Day
If you are considering purchasing a car, do not:
(1) Buy a new one with credit
(2) Buy a car more expensive than ~4,000$ (3,500 EUR)
Cheap cars such as 1999-2005 models are old, but if you test a car and see it runs perfectly. *watch YouTube videos on how to check a car or bring it to a mechanic to check (50eur in Germany)* It can last years.
Reasons to buy cheap cars (700$-1500$)
(1) Car parts are readily available on market meaning cheap(er) repairs if needed.
(2) Insurance is usually cheaper
(3) Cheap cars are more fun for:
( a ) You don't stress about scratches, bumps,
( b ) Rape the car as much as you want, its old, if it breaks, dump it or sell it for 50%.
( c ) Can be more reliable than newer cars (Toyotas!! Skodas!! Stay away from BMW and Audis)
(4) They do not lose much value on the market, Meanwhile drive a new car that costs 40,000$ for 20,000KM, it is already lost 1/3 of its value OR MORE!
Be smart about your money, and buy a cheap car. And thank me later when you see your bank
