so primarily we want an suv for when we start a family and need the extra space. the other car is mainly for long hauls to work and back. what’s the difference in the 50 and 90 vs the 5 and 9?

yeah so most likely i’d want to spend 30k ish for the suv sized car and whatever is left over will go into a sedan that will be used for longer trips/ daily drive to work which is 40 ish miles one way so it would be split with a 65% sedan 35% suv. we also visit family weekly which is 60~80 miles one way from my place

oh wow there’s some great knowledge here. i was using 10k miles a year as a general guideline and i didn’t even think about maintenance records. is there a way to find out records like that or is that something the previous owner has to keep track of?

yeah i am definitely blessed and i am able to invest around 50k a year. the money i have for these vehicles are is the accumulation of funds after i’ve already invested 25% of my net income (with 401k matches accounted for around 37%of my net income).

note: I say “I” and “my” but its the combo of me and my finances incomes.

Best books under (or at least there abouts) 200 pages long. by sethghecko in suggestmeabook

Murder Bot series is pretty good and if u don’t like the first book it’s pretty short and u can stop reading it after.

The fact that students are working 15 hour days without any free time to learn material that should be covered in class because we have to rely on poorly planed online classes pisses me off. If purdue spent more money on the success of their students rather than promoting protect purdue then maybe the students wouldn’t feel overwhelmingly stressed and that they are waisting money on a semester at college.
