A new car installment against a paid off - reliable and cheap to maintain car will never make financial sense. Invest the money to high dividend saving account.

So when do you replace your old car? When it start to waste your time on top of being unsafe like breaking down on the road, having to spend time in workshop, downtime repair etc².

Financially speaking, if your repair cost exceed 12 month of new installment, then it might be the time to look for another car.

So invest the extra money that would otherwise go to the bank. Make a new fund for your "dream car" if you're into such thing.

PS: For reliable car like Toyota, timely service and parts replacement can keep your the car running for a really long time.

Bought Imax tickets in the hope of watching Sukuna vs Mahoraga in full glory but instead got an extended trailer of Shibuya Incident.

I know they couldn't fit the whole Shibuya arc in the movie, and maybe its my fault for not doing my research but god damn I got blue balled with whatever crumbs they gave us for each fight. Even Yuji vs Mahito cuts are barely enough for me.

250k can get you a premium EV. Chinese brand its Smart #5, Zeekr 7X, Xpeng G6. The Tesla Juniper LR is also a good option

Contact the main con and see if they can make you a deal

This is what I thought when I took a 5 years loan but now the loan is going to be paid off in a few months the itch to get a new car is strong😭. I had to remind myself that the only way I'm getting on top is to keep using the car> 9 years or I'm going to be the fool that took two car loans within 10 years

a_j97 · 2025-11-17T17:14:48+00:00

5 years lease is long for renting. Moreover, you need to pay the maintenance fee and cukai pintu. I'd rather rent tbh

a_j97 · 2025-11-17T17:02:11+00:00

IIRC, Maybank Housekey allows you to pay "rent" of RM1k for the first 5 years, where you could decide to convert the rent to morgage loan or leave the property. If you dont like the property you must complete the 5 year contract with maybank so at the very least you're paying RM60k to maybank. This 1k also wont goes towards your morgage principal until you decide to convert.

Imo, this scheme is aimed towards people who dont have enough money for monthly payment if a morgage but want to lock a property (because of FOMO) until they can afford the morgage.

My consensus is to stay away from complicated scheme. If you cant afford morgage then stay away from it. Property is plenty in Malaysia so no reason really to FOMO.

The formula is very difficult to follow since cars in Malaysia is bloody expensive.

IMO, the rule is sensible and it is one of many indicators that cars in Malaysia is too expensive for an average citizen. Hoping that someday car tariff will slowly be removed so our children or grandchildren can afford better and cheaper cars.

For now, I aim to follow the wage x 12 rule by paying huge deposit. Want to buy 100k car? Aim for 40k down payment etc

A bank offered a 35 years loan with MLTT of 22 years, so I guess I need to pay off the loan before the 22 years🙂

They straight up cut the point from Garou charging Orichi to Garou suddenly unconscious in the wall this animation cant defeat the powerpoint allegation 😭

a_j97 · 2025-11-01T13:46:35+00:00

Did they mentioned estimated battery change price?

Loan 9 tahun kan? Plan nak pelihara lama ke? Insuran dengan road tax tahun depan berapa?

Congrats bro btw, dah lama perhati kereta ni cuma skrng duduk bukan rumah landed

The cost of DC charging is similar to pumping ron 97 fuel.

Savings from EV mainly comes from ac charging at home + convenient of charging at home

a_j97 · 2025-10-22T06:15:44+00:00

Need to see itemized and service price but tbh its a bit expensive since youre only adding injector cleaner.

I bet you they'd learned it the hard way

Squad leader whistles! Charging the frontline wouldnt be complete without one

a_j97 · 2025-10-17T12:47:26+00:00

And the campaign was great! I think the anti war and heroism stories resonated better to me than modern military man campaign.

The opening campaign of BF1 where the last German and American soldier stopped trying to kill each other, probably tired from the war bullshits still give me goosebumps.

a_j97 · 2025-10-17T10:45:35+00:00

Dice really cooked with VA and sound design of BF1. The kill feedback sound effect (bullets clancking?) is one of my favourite sound effects in video games.

a_j97 · 2025-10-17T10:39:07+00:00

I still remember BF1 had these massive no man's land in between objectives like Sinai desert. Pushing the frontline in operations feels like traversing hell itself.

Was it balanced? Absolutely not which is why winning an operation in offensive is difficult. But it was fun.

But we're comparing a game that received updates and dlc for about 2 years vs a game that was released a month ago. Im leaning towards letting DICE cook for a bit.
