don’t you just love the smell of a new car i don’t think there’s much that’s better than getting a brand new car driving it off the lot with you know zero miles putting that first smile on it and just that amazing smell all right that smell that you’re smelling
in the new car let’s face the facts i’ve always heard that it’s actually glue so maybe we’re huffing glue which we were told not to do in kindergarten what are we doing with our lives right now we’re getting that brand new car and huffing this stuff but it is nice to
have a brand new car if we haven’t met him eric with jazz wealth managers i want to dive right in today is is totally different than our general fin tips CashNews.cos i want to talk about buying a car and financing it or paying cash but from a whole different perspective because the idea of
paying cash for the car is something that dave ramsey talks about and he really pushes at home now he’s not the only one because i personally actually have cars that are paid for right this second and the fact is is that i i hate the idea of payments but there is a whole financial side of
things where it’s totally different because i could truly run the numbers and generally speaking i could show you that you were better off financing the car and investing that lump sum of cash and just making a payment so that is a whole nother side of it but what what about just what’s
best for you and that’s where this comes into play because i was talking with a client of mine and they’re in an awesome situation they’re in their 40s they’ve done very well for themselves they’ve followed the dave ramsey model and they’re completely out of
Debt now the gentleman drives a quite old vehicle and he was talking about you know we’re in getting to a point where we’re gonna need a new vehicle and should we pay cash for it and we’ve got the cash to pay for it or should we href="https://cashnews.co/finance" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1a73e8; text-decoration: none;">Finance
i say well go Finance the vehicle invest the cash well that’s great for me because as a financial advisor i can then you know manage the Assets make
money off of that as well but that’s not what i wanted to look at with them that wasn’t the case you know dustin actually did a CashNews.co for our clients that talked about the idea of financing a vehicle and the math behind it if you were to actually be able to always stay in a
payment but never have that payment increase you would always have a break even and the idea was pretty much to find a vehicle that was at least two years old the reason for that was the fact that if you drive a car off the lot he had shared that you know a vehicle is going to depreciate 19 right
then well in today’s society that’s a little different just because of supply and demand and the craziness with the vehicles but in general that’s the averages so you’re going to lose you’re always going to want to buy a car barely used well if you buy the barely used
car then from there you always look at using only 12 of your Income for the monthly payment and the Insurance on the vehicle so anything that comes into play there only using up to 12 percent of your Income and only href="https://cashnews.co/finance" style="font-weight: bold; color: #1a73e8; text-decoration: none;">Finance
science and math behind all of this and it’s really cool but again not everything is Finance numbers there’s the psychological side of it and that’s you
know somebody who dave ram the one who dave ran or you know the dave ramsey guy gosh if i could get that out dave ramsey that’s really what he pushes on is the psychological side not as much of the actual numbers and so with this client and what i really want to want you to pay attention to
is instead of trying to give you these these solid numbers and tell you exactly what you should be doing here’s what you have to realize if you have always modeled your life to pay off the car pay it off right away pay cash for it that’s not the wrong thing to do it’s okay
especially if you are already on track for your retirement years and you have the cash and you hate the payment on the other side if you need the car you have to Finance the
car and you’re able to be saving still for retirement that’s okay too the thing that has to come into play though is that psychological factor and this is exactly what i told this client and this is what i want to tell you that really brings home everything when it comes to this
CashNews.co this client has always been working on this dave ramsey strategy and is used to that unfortunately old habit old habits are hard to break be very careful if you get yourself into another payment i can show you the numbers how financially it might be the best thing for you but
financially long term it could be a bad thing if you get to a point where you’re comfortable with Debt again and you continue on with that process because if this client were to go buy the brand new vehicle and bold; color: #1a73e8; text-decoration: none;">Finance it and they had had struggled in years past with running up Debts if they get into that comfort of that payment and then also in the comfort of the new car in three years again going out and getting another new car
and saying well you know what i’m going to continue this cycle then you’re locked into this payment now if you have surplus Income and you want to pay a payment on a car whatever good for you but if you’re trying to achieve your goals and make sure that
you’re finding excess money that you can put away to reach your retirement goals then there’s a good possibility that you really need to evaluate you personally to make the best decision instead of trying to figure out well dave ramsey says this or the financial guy says this it truly
does all come down to what’s best for you thanks for watching if you want to watch more fintips CashNews.cos click here be sure to like and subscribe also

5 mins and he didn’t say a thing
Well said and excellent advice. Thank you sir.
Im looking at cars now and its 4 year old cars that are not far from the new car price this is crazy
Too much talk… did not go to the point!!!
This guy just says a whole lot of nothing
No numbers, no graphs, just rambling. Dude I understand you want to make the video longer for more ad revenue but you can do that by displaying examples of a car price, a rate, a loan, a break even point, yada yada yada
Not a great video
amazing how vehicles are the only fkng things we have to barter for. Just pump out cars from the dealerships and we buy at set prices.
For me cash only. 2 of my cars had re bates only offered if financed. I took the rebate financed the cars and paid off the financing the first payment! Saved 11000 total on both!
I'm not against financing or even leasing a car. I just don't like debt. Even if it makes no sense sometimes, I don't want debt. So for me: always cash. A house is a different thing, but a car is a no-brainer.
Sorry, too rambling
Here I am waiting for the financing cost analysis on why it would make sense to finance…got me good! I was going to use it to justify purchasing a $14K zero turn, sure i could pay cash, but the market opportunity right now is amazing (IMO)!, so I went with a 36month 0% financing and put 3K down. Win-win-win
Depends on the interest rate. I got 3 years at zero percent last year when I bought a new truck. So my paid off trade paid for 1/3 of it, I put down a third and financed a third of it for 3 years. Zero percent is free money. Depreciation what’s that? my purchase is worth $200 less than I paid for it 14 months ago at clean trade. Retail is $4,000 more than I paid for it. Not interested in selling though. I’m keeping it 10 to 20 years.
Cash unless the car is an appreciating asset. Then cash anyways.
This one is always interesting because lets say you are saving up for a vehicle that's going to cost either $18k in case or you are going to borrow $18k @ 4% (hopefully that goes back down soon). Assuming you are saving up $18k from scratch and haven't been given any money or don't already have it in the bank….well, you are going to have to save $500/month for 36 months in order to have $18k in cash. So essentially you are "making a payment" each month anyway, it's just to yourself at this point. If you took out a 48 month car loan @ 4%, your payment is $408 per month so the "payment" is actually lower and you'll only pay about $1500 in total interest over the life of that loan and less if you put a little more towards it each month. Plus there's the psychological piece of once you save up $18k and see it in a bank account, it can be very hard to let that go and write a check. Either way, you are making a payment to someone, it's just a matter of whether that $1500 in interest is worth it or not to go thru a bank. I used to lean towards cash only but I have changed that philosophy.
** cars. I FINALLY got rid of mine. Complete and utter waste of money.
You are one of the best finance education channels in YouTube. You deserve a million subscribers. I have learnt a lot from you 🙂 congrats on being so professional
I never pay interest. I earn it.
How do I find that video you were referring too on buying a car
