Re: Corollary to \"Talk me out of buying this car\"
It already looks to me like you have your mind set. You're simply wanting reassurance. It's very possible just to play break-even poker and pay with rakeback as you said, but I would opt to grind as much as you can in the following weeks to pay off the truck quicker so you dont have to worry about payments.
I dont think it's a terrible idea because you would get great credit by co-signing this and eventually paying it off. A major problem is that I dont see you getting a good return of investment on this truck at all. In a couple of years it's going to be showing it's miles. It may be a Cadillac, but it's an American made car. |

Yeah, you're are right- no one who posts here would play in that game. At any rate, just put the money in the game, not the car. [/ QUOTE ][ QUOTE ] You have 0 poker-related posts on your account. [/ QUOTE ] Well, that settles it... can't argue with that logic. Anyway, once again, I implore you to listen to reason; play the game. |

In fact, I'll probably need permission from my mom (wow, that sounds corny) to ask my grandmother to cosign on the loan. Before I even bid on the car, I'd need to fly out to Pittsburgh with a friend so I can test-drive it. Nevertheless, I need to know what steps to take, hence the posts. As for the value, if I knew the car would be worthless on my 23rd birthday, I'd probably still buy it. El Diablo's advice was spot on - in five years, I would be able to look back on the time I spent driving such a badass car (and call me "new money", or "hood rich," or whatever else, but this car is definitely badass). |
