Hello Faggots,
I need to decide to buy a car or an apartment, here are some financial details:
I currently acquired a good job, it pays 82k salary, twice per month. After taxes I get about 2440 per check. My bank statement says I have 2700 in the bank.
I owe 600 for last months credit card bill. maybe 50 for this months so far.
I am in a hotel, it is 325 per week with no stove, i've been eating terribly because no stove, gained a lot of fat weight, i pay about 100-200 dollars a week for takeout (BK, pizza joint, MCD, Dunkin, etc), In addition feel/look like shit due to the garbage food availabel to me (i prefer avacado kale shakes and grilled chicken to the disgusting whopper burgers and pizzas)
I uber back and forth work and the total cost per week is about 80 dollars per week
Should I buy a car first, or an apartment? If I buy the car I'll save on Uber and have a hot car. but If I buy an apartment I will still need to uber, to pay for internet, buy a bed, possibly pay back my debt on the utilities company (500~?)
What would you do? stay in the motel and get the car, then wait for 2 more checks before getting your own place, or get your own place, start eating right, and keep ubering to work for a few weeks?
Car is 3800OBO, apartment is going to be first+last+security (2-3 grand in my region)
Advice please
PS i'm leaving towards the car.
