What's something good that happened today?

Holy crap that sucks the muscle doesn't regenerate but grats on the surgery anyway! Sorry late to the party. The guitar player in my old band had that exact same condition in both hands, and it completely ruined his ability to play guitar.

Here's a cool 2.5 hour long video about building a classical guitar: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qmDAIlEGO_Q

Luckily I’m not talented enough with my hands to lose anything

The conservative side of my family has a stem cell doc that literally grew my aunt a new knee. And he uses your own body’s not aborted fetuses sold by planned parenthood, they made sure

So worst case scenario I have a back up plan. I don’t care how ugly my hand looks but if there’s some significant loss of function I may do stem cells

made chicken wings with a new wasabi lime marinade/sauce recipe. Bomb diggity.

Got a car loan at 5.97% interest when official inflation is 6.2%.

Had the cash to buy it, but mining crypto is north of 100% per year on cost of hardware.

Thanks bank.

Hmm, when I did I got 3.7ish. This was June though. And I think I did like a 7yr loan

Man the lender stands to make a lot of money off me though. Just about $1000/year in interest payments for the 7 years...

US? (new?) 2021 model and did 7 years
I got a used 2016 model and did 5 years in the Great North.
I don't know your credit score, but unless you're Top 0.01% you're probably not higher =P

The car is the collateral of the loan. If you default, the bank gets it.

Brand new models get better rates, 3-4 years get slightly higher, then older get even higher.

Anything 6% or lower is effectively a no-interest loan. Used it wisely.

Nah, I've missed the occasional payment and have lots of debt, I think my score only like 770ish

I actually wanted to buy used, but Tacomas hold their value so well, and with the chip shortage, the used models that were 1-3 years old with 30-60k miles were the same prices as new, so I figure may as well buy new since I was dead set on Tacoma. I regret it (slightly) now due to only 19mpg average and gas costing an arm and a leg (Biden: I Did that!)

edit: what's crazy is AZ is one of those states where the lienholder isn't on the title, so assuming if I just changed my identity and stopped paying, the title would still be in my name. Then it be a matter of how well I could hide from the repo-man [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I was able to rise to the occasion and do the shopping and heavy lifting my family wanted.
