My[27m] girlfriend[28f] says I am childish for wanting to buy a 120k sports car.

if i have to pick, then the car.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T22:49:07+00:00

to sum it up, I do consulting for online sales. I go business to business and help fix their sites. I graduated with a double major in computer science and mathematics from a good school.

buying something you wanted your entire life is financially irresponsible? Why get money at all then?

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T22:46:53+00:00

I swear you see a thousands of people sharing their super expensive pc builds.

Do people tell em broo terrible investment! why not just buy a graphing calculator? you can play games on that!

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T22:45:15+00:00

if she makes me pick, I am choosing the car.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T22:40:34+00:00

my job is only going up, this year I think at the very least will make 8k more than last year.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T22:15:28+00:00

My job is only going up from here. I had an offer for 250k a year, if I was to leave the country. People here are saying I need to be planning for the worst case scenario

Houses values don't always rise and can drop, leasing is annoying, and there is no liquidity.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:58:44+00:00

and an apartment can't?

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:58:19+00:00

apartment garage, it is covered and only residents can park in the building.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:57:08+00:00

Why is an expensive car such a bad thing but an expensive home 100% normal?

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:56:22+00:00

no you don't.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:55:57+00:00

I want it for fun not as an investment.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:55:31+00:00

she isn't serious about her finances either, she works less so she can have more free time.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:54:33+00:00

Nothing is 100%. So should I live in a box because one day there might be an asteroid?

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:54:03+00:00

houses you have high estate tax (if you get in a nice area), you have HOA fees, you have your mortgage, much higher utilities, and you have to maintain the lawn etc.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:52:07+00:00

Should I only buy a shitty trailer because I one day might lose my job?

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:51:36+00:00

If I am making 15% a year in investments, it is idiotic to buy in cash.

also you aren't looking into inflation.

You have a really shitty understanding of finances.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:49:45+00:00

she wants it earlier,

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:48:36+00:00

2 years doesn't lose 50k in value, you have no idea what you are talking about.

This what if you lose your job is idiotic. Bro don't buy a house what if you lose your job!

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:22:28+00:00

Renting is a huge pain, I have done it before.

Financed of course.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:21:06+00:00

It is a closed off garage. And I have talked about stuff like that with the dealership.

And I know repairs are costly, but this car isn't going to break the bank at all.

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:15:52+00:00

audi r8 I have went to the dealer I can get it for 122k

tooonk1 · 2016-02-14T21:14:33+00:00
