I HATE Mitsubishi - Mitsubishi Sucks!
When it rains it pours…
Over the weekend the engine in my 2001 Mitsubishi Montero blew up on the interstate. This is the 2nd Mitsubishi that I have owned that the motor has blown up in. I am still making payments on the &^%*&^ thing. So a used motor is about to cost me $4600.00.
Thank God and Dave Ramsey for things s
uch as an emergency fund. If I didn’t have an emergency fund I just might be at the local mental ward. I don’t believe in financing anything but a home anymore. So that would have thrown me over the edge. Once my Montero is paid for, I will be debt free and I will NEVER NEVER NEVER go back. The feeling of R-E-L-I-E-F is priceless.
When I only have the cable, insurance, power, and cell phone bill rolling in each month, I can spend my money on what ever I want to. I no longer have to fund the luxury vacations for a CEO at Capitol One. I can fund MY vacation, with cash of course, or I am not going.
If I can’t pay for it, then I can’t have it. I have to tell myself, “NO!” That word doesn’t belong in most American’s vocabulary. I can’t stand hearing someone say, “I deserve it”, as they are charging up their credit card. You deserve to put yourself and family in a financial hole? You deserve to carry a huge burden around on your shoulders?
Cut up your credit cards and start off the New Year on the right foot. Make this the year that you distinctly remember changing your life. Make 2008 the year you gave a gift to yourself… financial peace.
I am sure you don’t remember what your resolution was in 2007. So make 2008 memorable! You deserve it!
