This says you need to make 200K to buy a Corolla.
Do you agree?

200k is for an Avalon. Which makes sense yes

We've had this same thread a million times before.
The short answer is that you can spread the cost of the car over multiple years (financing, simply saving money, and so on). That image is dumb.

>>15375752
This is bullshit. Go by 15-20% of your income for all transportation expenses. If you make $25,000, that amounts to $5,000 on cars at most, which is $416/mo. You could spend $100 on insurance, $150 on gas, $50 on maintenance, and have over $100 left for car payments.

It isn't hard. If you can't get scholarships, don't go. Don't blame the big bad schools for using your stupid ass to fund their actual valuable pupils.

So mean, please be nice.

>Get a job
Property taxes actually, that where it comes from.
>>15375923
The people who claim it's "crippling" are the people who take out like 100k in loans for housing, food, apple computers, car payments, and so they can sit around doing fuck all for 4 years instead of getting a job.
If you go to a CC then transfer, utilize grants, and have a job + live with parents while going to school you should graduate with very minimal debt.

We aren't talking about the US are you fucking stupid.. Jesus christ.
>>15375948
>My point is it exists
Cool off topic point, bro
>>15375964
It's funny because Americans a) boast about having to work through college and b) don't realize that working through college deducts from their studying time, effectively forcing lower education standards so they wouldn't mass drop out, meaning that an American four year degree is less valuable than a European three year degree.

this.
I'm on my final year of my B.Sc. Biochemistry degree and have 0 debt, I've been working every day since I was 18, I have over 30 grand in my bank account without my parents paying for ANYTHING.
tldr, stop being lazy cunts.
>>15375987
except american universities are better
and our per capita income is higher than europe so apparently it doesn't matter.
enjoy your socialist welfare state crippled by inflated government wages and bureaucracy
>>15375964
I didn't even go to CC, because the transfer meme is mostly a scam perpetuated by the CC, and lived on my own.
>Oh yes, goyim, the university will take all of your credits here as equivalent
>take 30 credit hours of classes
>university takes 9
>>15375987
It's a hell of a lot more complicated than that. Burger universities tend to pay their professors more money than Euros do, and provide better retirement plans. We end up poaching a lot of the best English speaking academics from Europe because of this. Our schools are also better funded in general, with more money for research and facilities.
Of course, there a shit schools with shit standards for people who don't want to study. But, by spending a year longer in school we compensate for the difference in time spent. Plus, euro degrees have the same amount of credit hours required, so you end up just taking one whole year less of school.
Also, it would take a very close to full time job to not leave enough time to study. I didn't work my first two years of school and I had so much time to sit around and do nothing that I got a job to relieve the boredom.
inb4 you only were able to do that because shit school
I got accepted for my master's a very prestigious school in a soon-to-be former EU country, but I'm not going because I'm not going into debt for it. T_T
>>15375987
And when we graduate we don't have to pay for everyone else to go to school.
US university cost is inflated horribly high right now and the cost needs to be regulated in state funded schools, but it does NOT need to be paid for by taxing other people.
>>15376022
Your per capita debt, too.
>europe
>relevant

>>15376057

Okay, so this argument is just going in circles.
>hurr murricans have debt
>hurr euros pay for others to go to school whether they use it or not
Both have pros, both have cons. But ultimately, I think the American system is better because debt is a choice, taxes are not.
>>15376057

Not being able to go to school because you would end up in massive debts is not a choice. Exhibit A: The "land of opportunities" having worse social mobility than "socialist" Europe.
>People unironically believe you need a cuck car load to build "credit" instead of having a single grocery card that you pay off each use to save money on insurance
>People unironically buy $250k tract homes made from twigs with no money down as "investments" instead of buying multiple rental properties for cash
>People unironically go to college instead of learning a trade that pays the same and can be learned in 1/8 the time
>People unironically work in the private sector instead of getting a .gov job where healthcare, leave, pensions, and guaranteed promotions as well as pay raises exist
>Anons falling for the education meme

>>15376476
>implying social mobility isn't shit because Americans CHOOSE to live beyond their means.
Something like 98% of millionaires are 1st or 2nd gen here in the US anyway. Stop blaming other people for your failures.
>>15375752
No, because the mathematics and financial thinking used to make the chart were flawed from the start. Different living circumstances mean the amount that someone could/should reasonable spend on a car will vary. As a general rule, your car payment + insurance should be between 20-30% of your gross monthly income, depending on your living situation
>>15376476
Insofar as the education debate that I think is happening in this thread, it's fantastically easy to go to college for free or near free in the US provided you do some basic planning in high school. Between the military, scholarships, using community colleges to get your first 2 years out of the way, and basic financial aid, college is accessible to 99% of people in a very affordable way
>>15376529
>20-30% a month on a car
Lmao.
The non dealercuck rules:
Expenses 33%
Charity 33%
Savings 33%
Freedom 100%
The website say you can got up to 50% if you really like cars or 20% if don't live in a city with transportation . You could save up for your retirement, travel, work less or get a nice hobby.
They just say that you should buy a used car instead of buying a corolla s.

20-30% of gross monthly income is the standard rule of thumb most financial planners will give you about vehicle costs, and like I said, it's just an estimate
If you live in a city with extraordinary high cost of living, with solid public transit, it could be 5%. if you live out in the country of North Carolina where cost of living is extremely cheap, it could be higher than 30%. How much of a bite something should take out of your budget is always going to depend on a multitude of factors that are directly connected to where you live and what your lifestyle is like.
>>15376563
You should never get into debt to buy a car. End of story.
>Financial advisors.
Why would I let other people handle my finances? Pants on head retarded.
i noticed people who approach their personal finances like a board game, or like they're scared to death of money, rarely accomplish anything of financial merit
it's like a big fat lady who counts calories every day and makes arbitrary, difficult to follow rules about how many carrots to eat every day. it's all feel good posturing that disguises the fact that she doesn't know jack squat about health and isn't learning anything new.
like people who read self help books but never do anything. it feels good to fill your mind with bullcrap, you say "something in here will stick, i just know it!"
these people have spreadsheets and spreadsheets full of expenses and budgets and they're just treading water in the shallow end of the pool.

Whatever you say man. I'll continue "treading water" by having no debt sapping up my income, investing a third of my income, and living well below my means.
More is never enough.
>>15376627
Some debt is good, good debt vs bad debt is one of the first things you will learn about if you ever venture into real personal finance
>>15376591
>>15376639
Post is fucking spot on. The fat lady counting calories/doesn't actually know shit about health is an incredibly accurate description, actually made me chuckle out loud
And it transfers because most people don't actually know jack shit about money or finance. It's not taught in school. Unless you were lucky enough to have a parent or a degree that gave you exposure growing up, your working knowledge will be whatever you picked up from pop culture/self help bullshit. People watch shit like Jim Cramer, make a spreadsheet they never use, and never actually make anything of hte money they have
