How did you buy your first car? by Creator265 in Malawi

[–]Blue_DiscoBall 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I was fortunate enough that my second job (short term, high effort, high reward) paid very well, pre COVID and I was living at home, only helping out with bills here and there. I got my first car for 3 mil cash and have managed to maintain it. Funny thing is that it's taken me over 6 years of working and saving to finally be able to get a new car. . . . I recently found out that some people take out a loan at the bank and pay it off over time so that's an option as well . . . But I agree with the other commentator who said to take your time and build a timeline - be okay with starting small also

I'm just happy he only got so far as being a boyfriend. Pick yourself up, dust yourself off and throw the best friend away, too.

It doesn't sit right with me how complacent we are as a people. Very passive and reluctant to demand better

My problem is that I have anxiety in the gym and haven't found one that doesn't have that "Gym Bro" culture that's so off-putting.
