Hobie Hartkins got a reaction from Skipper Duke in The last 24 hours
Find something that makes you a pretty good chunk monthly for a part time job. DO NOT touch this and invest it after you have 3-6 months of your expenses in an emergency fund. from '90-2000 I made enough to pay cash for a 3 bed room 2 bathroom house and the taxes etc. When the smoke cleared I had all the money I started with plus $10,000 of my interest UNTOUCHED! I'm talking to you now in a house that was basically " Free"....I paid for it with interest and stil had " MY" money AND the 10 thousand left of interest! It took 10 HARD years though!

No better today. I hope it's only a 3 day thing like most of my colds. Congrats on paying it off Garrett. Be careful jumping over those creeks though. Most mechanics aren't as cheap as Cooter.

That is a great idea. Though I live in an apartment so it has to be monthly. I use to have a part time job and still struggled, but gave that one up when I started take college classes as it would be too much.

The Key is; 1. BE PATIENT! 2.BE DISCIPLINED 3. Design your budget to where you are able to save and invest a good sized chunk of money every week/month. This might HAVE TO include a part time job that you save 100% of your check. while living off what you make now. 5-10 yrs. from now you should have enough to pay cash for a house, cars etc.
Also, once you have a car paid for, keep saving in a " Car Fund" ( a well hidden envelope) and when you have $1,000 saved put it in its own account in the bank. Then continue until you have 8- 10 thousand, then put that with what they give you for your car. It should work for a used car'!

Exactly my problem. But I don't see any way around it.

Then there's that...I agree 100% on this.
Well I guess we can't all be right. LOL. I remember Denny's first season in Sprint. He won both races at Pocono. "The Tricky Triangle" LOL. He just better leave Chase and the rest of the Hendrick boys alone. Go pick on Kyle Busch instead...

Feeling sick. Sore throat. Stuffed up. Achey and sore all over. Exhausted.
Buttermilk ain't fixin' it and I'm out of Hobie's Finest. Time to fire up Black Tillie Hobie.

Disregard the GoFundMe link. He found a buy her pay here dealer that rolled the $5k into a loan for another car. He just jumped from one deep pool to one where his head is barely above water but whatever. I offered advice and he didn't care to listen. He called last night boasting that it has more options than our cars, So it also has 4x the miles ours do. Heck add the miles of both the wife's and my car's and they still wouldn't come close to his new car. I wish him good luck with it though and hopefully he can keep his head above water on it.
