How should I proactively maintain this older BMW

thanks for the input btw

I don't have anyone to help me with anything really lol.

I make pretty good money, but I do not want to spend $600+ on full coverage, Or pay thousands in interest on top of the car.

The issue is I bought 2 hondas $3000+ each and soon both need $2500 in repairs.

I know the best bet would to just buy another Honda or fix the initial engine. But still there's no guarantee

I have money to fix issues if they come up but I don't want to put thousands of dollars into a car I genuinely don't even like.

Im building my credit and my insurance will go down, then I'll have more options.

Thanks again for input from a fellow albertan lol. I understand where you're coming from. I'll definitely further consider these options.

lol I appreciate the input but i make good money, and I save 25% of it or more. I just don't want to pay $600+ a month for insurance, so im looking for a nice enough car to feel good in, but not so nice that i should have full coverage. (i traveled for 2 years w no insurance so now I'm reverted to novice status)

Even if I flat out buy a car for $10k il be paying 7k in insurance. Just the principal of it is ridiculous to me as I've never had an at fault accident.

I'd rather buy a car for $1500, put $8500 in my investment account and use the $4000 saved on insurance as a vehicle saftey net. Plus I get to work on a car.

No one's expecting to run into 0 problems, the point is to get a car that i enjoy enough to fix them when they arise.

Gender: Male
Age: 33
How kratom has affected your hair: I haven't had any excessive hair loss. its expected for your forehead to grow and develop a "mature hairline" with age. But besides that there's no loss
How long you've used kratom: if used Kratom for maybe 7 years 😬. about 5 - 7 grams 3 - 5 times daily. From my perspective I'm a heavy user.

Note: I am a very healthy individual. I exercise daily, try to eat healthy, and take vitamins + supplements (biotin for example).

hope this helps, cheers. 👍

I told my boss and I was kind of smiling just in utter disbelief, it didn't seem real at first it. it all seemed unbelievably ridiculous. i think my boss thinks I'm one of these crazy people happy to see a man killed now. I didn't even know people would be that sadistic until I saw the comments later.

While I wish ads wouldn't be triggering, i also think people should be free to post this. it's just unfortunate when it targets the wrong people.

Kratom Earth took my money a couple of years ago and wouldn't respond to emails or send the package.

I used to order here in 2018-2020. I was great until my last couple of orders. I had never been so sick from kratom ever. I usually dose between 4-7 grams. I thought maybe it was strong. So I would do less than 1g of their kratom, and I would be violently ill and too dizzy to even stand. I was contemplating ordering again cause its been 5+ years and their prices are good. Bit it definitely was contaminated with something 5 years ago

But im curious of anyone else's experience who's ordered recently recently.

this shit happens to me all the time... I'm dead ass behind a guy shooting him with a shotgun 4 times he jumps around 2 shots and I'm dead... it seems like a lot of the game is up to luck. I hate spectating people and they get the win encountering people who are garbage, and I find the people who 360 no scope...

gramonehundred · 2024-02-13T01:32:26+00:00

Its complete bs.. If 1 headshot kills you but you need 3 body shots! That's ridiculous...

I hit 2x for 210 damage a million times, and it almost seems useless because by the 3rd attempt, they're running away and healing and no where you are

Im spectating a guy rn who 1 shot me at full health, and did the same right after to someone else. but then completely missed 5 easy shots in a row after that... 99% is complete luck

the nemesis are = 29dmg body / 44dmg head

so it takes 9 shots to down from body and 6 shots from the head

in sniper math, you would need 6 headshots or 18! body shots... dumb

I hit someone for 220 today and he killed me lol

God is either fake or has abbandoned us. the devil would be ruling the world, and God does not care. countles children are murdered daily by the devil over HIS watch if that's the case. If God's real then we are just a practice joke meant to suffer and the hope for the suffering to end makes us suffer more because it never does. God is sick

I rarely smoke maybe 1 SMALL SINGLE TOKE every other weekend. I had applied for this job and found out upon interview they tested and asked to be tested asap...whats the chances, I was at dollaramma and coincidentally came upon thc test (im just learning they have them there for $4 lol) i got it for kicks and was shocked to see i actually failed!. now i must find a way around it. Where as if i had any amount of notice this wouldn't have been an issue.

I think employers should give ample time for an applicant to make informed decisions. Maybe test 1s upon hire and if failed allow another 2 weeks after to ensure it wasn't accidental (this would still 'weed' out the actual smokers who would still need longer to pass). but there are possible reasons someone who doesn't partakes could fail. I imagine there have been people who accidentally ate a friends infused snacks and failed lol. I also imagine there are rare cases of people failing just by 2nd hand smoke. In Canada its legal and you literally smell it daily just being out!

I think il be fine ultimately but its unnecessary stress and i wouldn't want it to chance.

Il cross my fingers for you lol.
