Or did you want to make payments on a $30,000+ car instead?

By comparison, a 3.0L SVT is almost a free car.

If you've got too much money, I'll PM you my address.



Moneywise, I'm fine and should be more fine in 2007; As you can imagine, being stuck in a time warp for a year does wonders for one's finances.

As for debt, I don't have much outside of my mortgage--which gets paid for by the rent of the other units in the building. I budget money aside to use as a car budget (filed under entertainment). As for vacations, I'm still young enough that I don't mind staying in youth hostels when I visit Europe, so I can travel pretty cheap.

Oh, and I wouldn't buy that $30k car new anyway; I'd wait until it had a few miles on it, then buy it for $20k used.
