        I make four times that and my last car payment was 230 dollars. Hyundai Accent. Be better at being poor. Valid point, crap numbers.

        Offering a poor person a health savings account is like offering a starving person a cookbook.

        I mean that in many cases, a new cheap car costs less per month than an upscale used car. Warranty too.

        why does she have a $400 car payment? Sounds like she doesn't need that nice of a car

        400 might be a lot for just the car payment, but if you include insurance and gas it makes sense to budget 400 a month on your car

        the problem is not rent or cell phone. The problem is a $400 per month car payment. That's insane! She needs Dave Ramsey stat!

        it cost more to be poor people! Jesus. Buying a used car isn't an option either as fixing things is a big one time payment
