Ten years ago I was awarded $12,000 from a lawsuit. The judge ordered it to be put in the highest interest account possible (5.30%) which is unheard of today. I was told I would be able to withdraw it on my birthday in 2009. My car broke down on my way home from work and now I've decided to buy a new car it's between a white 07 impala ($10,000) or a white 08 g6 ($9,000). I'm going used so I can treat myself to a qp after I get the car. Which do you guys/gals suggest?
How often was the interest compounded? Anyway, I'd go with the G6 between those two choices I'm in the market for a "new" car and I'm mainly looking at '07/'08 Chrysler 300s
I'd say that really depends on your intended use of the car. I had a couple friends that have/had Impalas. I nicknamed it the mafia staff car since it has enough trunk space for about 3 people to fit into. The G6 is also a nice comfortable car
I'm mainly using the car to get me to and from work and pick-ups. I don't know if I'm more excited about the qp or the car. Still have to wait 7 days.
a car will last you a lot longer than a qp haha. i'd be way more excited about the car. i say the 08 g6 personally
Why an impala or G6? Those are both nice cars but you could get something cooler for ten g's. But if its between those i would have to go with the impala..
Yo guys, Im about to pick up my new car soon. Im getting a black Kia Sportage! I can ditch my shitty 98 durango thats turn signals dont work. Peace
go with the G6 for sure. IMO they're a lot more reliable, look pretty cool. not to mention pretty quick. and plus for $1000 cheaper, im sure your could find some use to the extra $1000
If you were awarded 12 grand 10 years ago and it was put in a high interest account. How much do you have now?
do the g6 i had a trust account when my dad died and i got just short of 15 grand at my 21st birthday. that money is way gone by now. i shoulda bought something nice like that but i had like 6 Grand in traffic tickets i had to pay by then. then i paid for a lot of other cool yet shitty stuff too. like a camera. i still have it. worth a grand. but i could have gotten more stuff i would have been more happy with. i wish i went ahead and bought a bunch of cool music equipment. shit with the 5 grand i really had to just spend, i would have bought shit that was better than the few things i have now. even tho i do have top of the line stuff. i dont question your choice of a car. i mean it sounds like you need it and hell i could use that money too. just sharing a life story.
