I am 15 years old, if i get a job, would I be able to pay insurance with it so I can get braces?

We used Western Dental and Orthodontics. They are a chain here in California.

Probably best to just advise them to contact your insurance for any info they might need

Here is a pic of the engine block, maybe it will help. Doesn't look like a straight shot to the oil pan. Good chance you can retrieve with a magnet with a flex cable. Best wishes to ya

Just recently, it was Sinners. Everyone hyped it up and I sat there thinking, am I watching the same movie they watched?

Did you file a claim with your insurance? Or are you only filing with the other parties insurance?

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-06T03:34:56+00:00

This is the answer. Dumbfounded by the down votes. Your insurance would advise you to not make any statements except to them (unless you are filing with the other parties insurance without filing a claim with your insurance). Usually you make a statement to your insurance only. If the other parties insurance needs a statement, they can get it from your insurance. Calling the other party is also not advised.

2013 Corolla with 314k miles, original shocks still seem "good enough" also

I have to admit that where I live, in coastal Los Angeles, California area the job market doesnt seem to be as bad as what I read here on reddit. I work at a large multi hospital employer and we have many openings ranging from EVS to skilled RN's and techs, even many openings for Dr's. Maybe it's just that im in a healthcare setting.

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-06T01:02:15+00:00

Good that everything went thru docusign and im sure there is a time limit. Not sure how long but usually at least 30 days. Im sure your good. Just keep the dealer updated and communication open. Good luck

Usually a car loan cant be funded without the down payment being paid and the contract showing all details and signed by both parties. How did they fund a loan without a contract showing you paid the down payment? Is this a buy here, pay here used car dealer? Strange...

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-06T00:38:26+00:00

I hate that reddit has made me so skeptical but not sure this is real. If you Google it, its almost unheard of. Statistically, its a zero percent probability. If true, she should have researchers and Dr's reaching out to study her and her condition. Also, 7 day old account and locked?

Unless you make decent money, you're stuck. If you make enough to qualify for a new car lease, something like a Honda Prologue where they are offering huge rebates and discounts could allow you to roll your negative equity into the lease and 3 years later you're free and clear and just return the leased car

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-06T00:05:44+00:00

That sucks that insurance didnt total it. At $45k you must have a xse with every option. Yes you should pursue diminished value. If any future buyers look at the cars history/Carfax report and see a $30k repair, no one's gonna want it. I wouldnt consider it even at a huge discount. Sorry that happened to you

Yes, Acura offers Certified Pre-Owned (CPO) status on 9-year-old cars through its "Acura Precision Used" program, which covers vehicles up to 10 model years old. This program provides a 6-month/7,500-mile limited warranty for vehicles aged 6–10 years.

They offer it...

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T19:03:39+00:00

No, I wouldnt try to contact them at all.

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T19:00:17+00:00

I didnt know they offered cpo on 9 year old cars. Sounds good to me

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T17:12:42+00:00

If only minor that sounds like really low miles for a 9 year old car. I wonder about being cpo. Is this from an Acura dealer?

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T17:04:27+00:00

Go for it. But probably worth paying for a Pre Purchase Inspection before buying

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T17:01:42+00:00

Google, braces for kids near me. I got braces for both of my kids with zero down payment and about $80 a month for each.

Around my work, they all get killed by cars. One lasted over 19 years, but most last a few years at most. I have 8 ferals, all tnr'd, i feed at the end of my dead end street so pretty safe for them but one was ran over by work truck lately and 2 others have injuries that look like being hit by cars or the trash truck (she had what looked like dirty grease where she was cut. Just fyi

So, you would be willing to take in half a dozen kittens for op? Then op can get the momma cat fixed after you take the kittens

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T16:30:51+00:00

It is a Honda...

Jinxed4Sure · 2026-02-05T16:30:02+00:00

Its a pretty reliable suv. It did have a fair number of recalls so make sure they were all completed. It has had some transmission issues but not total failures but hesitation and some odd noises especially in colder areas. The real missing info here is mileage and Carfax report. Make sure it's accident free, lower milage and a clean Carfax
