Sir? I think you have a problem with your brain being missing.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Whoa! Aims!

Whoa!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Hmm, I hear you in terms of thinking that *should* be the case, but seriously, if you're gonna get a car, get one that won't be giving you the same kind of angst you're getting now, and that will probably be at least $12-15K.

I cashed out some stock options last year, and I'm expecting a decent bonus this year, so I was thinking of combining those to make a car. But I suppose I could throw all that at them and then pay the rest in installments? I disapprove of paying interest.

I found my other sister.

I'm confused.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I disapprove of paying interest.

Right, but the question is, can you get good enough interest that it's worth holding onto your money for a while and letting it earn for you, rather than spending it all at once?

Thrive to spite them

Aimee that's exciting.

I discovered why my keyboard was typing funny -- my coworker took it apart to clean it and evidentally stuff shifted. So if you press the backspace it types B and if you press B the backspace works. At least things aren't randomly freaking out.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Aims! Wow!

I've got an ING account, but the interest rate's been falling along with everything else. Shit, it's down to 3.348% now.

Exactly. The interest rate on our auto loan is 1% and the money that we would put into savings makes 4.75%. And hey, some dealers have 0% interest rate promotions, which, if you have good credit, you may be able to qualify for.

The status is NOT quo.

Plus, if you've never had a credit card or other real loan, you need to build credit, and a car loan is an excellent way to do that.
