What’s the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
My grandmother is the one to thank for this advice. If you want to buy something that you can’t afford, put it on layaway if you’re afraid it won’t be there when you’ve saved enough to buy it. Never go into debt if you can help it, and if you have to go into debt, make sure that the amount of debt you carry is debt that you can afford easily. Never lease a car, always purchase it one because it can be sold later if need be. And when purchasing a car, always make sure you pay in full, it’ll mean you won’t have a new car ,but you will have a reliable used car that you can afford to keep. This next bit of advice comes from me. When buying a used car, try to find a Mercedes Benz with a diesel engine,it might be older than you want to go, but it’ll last a long time and you’ll pay less for gas over time. I found this out by talking to a cab driver who told me that there are cabs that have more than a million miles on them, and they are all Mercedes Benz with diesel engines.
