So, today on the way to work, the 2013 Prius V company car that the owner was letting me use full time took a shit, pretty sure the hybrid battery just took a dive, and it was diagnosed with a minor head gasket leak that was quoted at nearly 70% of the car's blue book value a month or so ago, which was then sealed, so the boss isn't going to invest the 4 to 5gs mechanics are quoting to repair it with a new engine since they essentially make the head in a 3rd gen Prius have so little room for machining that it's essentially a coin flip on whether or not you can do a head gasket repair without finding out you have to replace the entire head.

This puts me in a position where I'm going to need to get another vehicle, but my girlfriend and I were talking about getting a 7 seater soon anyhow.

Now, with her car still having 7k on the loan payable over the next 3 years we're at a crossroads.

Your average american would run out and finance a car at this point and cripple their ability to continue investing.

Here's what Throndor's going to do. Since we already have a reliable car financed with under 50,000 miles, the need for a significantly reliable car for basic transportation needs is somewhat diminished.

Instead of running out and financing another car and putting myself in a position to where I cannot continue funnelling cash into the long term investments, coupled with the fact that I'm fairly apt at doing routine repairs such as dropping a new starter in, replacing a fuel pump/water pump, replacing a thermostat, replacing spark plugs n wires, new hoses/flanges etc, I'm just going to buy a late 90s early 00's Chevy Suburban that seats 7 for about 3 grand and deal with the light maintenance issues as they arrive.

Worst case scenario if the motor or tranny takes a dive, its going to run me about 1200 to do a major part procurement, and given the increased accessibility and lesser amount of sensors in an older truck, the shop hours for cherry picking and dropping a new motor/transmission into it at some point in the future are fairly manageable.

Anyhow, wish me luck folks.

*pats head and scritches ears* You're a good boy Throndor! You're a good boy!

Correction. I'm rising with a 33% drag on my net income whilst earning 10 to 12% BELOW the average salary across the entire fucking country, in one of the most expensive places to live in the country.

It's the single most lucrative market in the country and it's mind-boggling how you could be making $45k and afford to live there. Janitors make more than $45k in San Jose and they can't afford to live there.

You find that story hard to believe, but you believe it when a cunt in a 3500$ suit (AOC) says she plans to implement a system where we're all going to be "rich" without having to do a goddamn thing, except vote shitlords like her into office.

capital is limited, by hoarding and taking it away from the market in large amounts, you single-handedly deprive others from the opportunity to live.

i am being a patron of the arts, therefore ethically it's perfectly fine.

Other people should have to work to provide power to his mom's basement

Other people should have to work to provide internet services to his mom's basement

Other people should have to work to provide healthcare that he deserves for free since he's 300lbs and claiming disability

Other people should have to work to pay his SNAP benefits


Capital is limited, and when you're on the "Take" everyone else is supposed to work to support your fat ass, while you're free to evade taxes through Twitch donations.

you do realize basements don't really exist in south florida, right?

food for thought

nice edit btw
