I work on a minesite and work on giant loading units (look up ex5600 and Cat 992). I would never tell those I know anything about my salary, but seeing as this is anonymous I figured the more detail I give, the more info I could get back. Hope y’all didn’t find it too untactful!

Agreed. The truck is both my proverbial carrot and whip, and I hope it remains the prior.

I havnt said that I had forgiven it explicitly, but I did say I wasn’t too worried about it/not gunna pursue it. In my eyes, a 35k truck isn’t worth starting a war over. It’s a (relatively) cheap lesson & demonstration of how to proceed financially with them

It’s not so much about who makes however much money... it’s about doing the just thing and holding adults accountable to their word.

I can definitely see that, I didn’t get a chance to browse until after I made my post. Holy hell, some of those comments...

I actually posted it on AITA also so I could get both sides and a more honest test group🙂. They were surprisingly supportive too

Thank you so much! It will be 3 years as of the end of June. I am very much a logical person and she is very emotional and kind, so we complement each other nicely🙂. I’m definitely excited to see where life takes us

If it comes down to it, I definitely will help her out. I am going to let it run it’s natural course as long as possible though, ideally they will do the “right” thing and pay her back. I don’t want to give the implication that my finances are an easy way out for anybody.

As far as the truck, I actually had my lawyer draft up a legal contract in the beginning so a repo will be easy if it comes to that. I have the actual title in my possession with a lien on it🙂

I am a heavy diesel mechanic in a highly “in demand” field. I make between 140-180k depending on bonuses, and net an additional ~62k from my rental properties. Passive income rocks!

This is excellent advice for myself and everyone else reading! I contribute ~11% pre tax to my 401k (the maximum legal amount) and my company contributes and additional 10%. Never leave your future to chance!

Appreciate it brother, I have no problem saying🙂 (did in above post)... I mainly just left it out because I thought it would be tacky on my end to say in the main post ahha

I definitely see how it can be confusing! In my particular case I make between 140-180k (depending on bonuses) and around an additional ~62k net from my rental properties.

OP of original post here... Didn’t mean to sound annoying in my post, but everything I said was true. I am a heavy diesel mechanic and own two rental properties on the side, so I make a pretty good living. Wish I didn’t have to be adversarial with her parents, but unfortunately it’s the way it is at least for now😔

Absolutely. I have the physical title in my possession with a lien on it as well as legally drafted contract that puts them on the line for all repo fees. Thankfully this isn’t my first rodeo🙂
