my mom has coworkers are who making 6 digit figures and have just bought gorrgeouss houses by themselves, but drive an acura integra. they took tehir money and put it as a downpayment on their house, rather than put it into a car that will depreciate in value as soon as u take it off the lot.
when i get out of school and im making money, i will definitely NOT be buying a car first. house comes first, car comes after. as long as youre not left driving some 85 geo metro, i dont think buying an expensive car as your first choice is a smart move.

I hope you stick to that, and those are words of encouragement.
Not to sound emo. LoL.
