The Right Time to Buy a Brand New Car

Ang magandang rule dyan is dont buy it when you cant pay it in cash. This way, you will strive to save more and by the time you have enough money,youll realize that you dont need it and just keep the savings.

This like saying never. Given a montly salary scheme. If you are saving for a house, how can you save for a car? So, a house you can loan? Car you should pay in cash?

This is different. The value of the house and lot appreciates (provided hindi binabaha parang sa provident village yung lugar).
cars depreciate.

Anything less thena G650, SC ka lang.

Mahirap yang 17K monthly amortization if you're earning 50K a month if you ask me... You're not even adding in insurance, fuel and service expenses of the vehicle.

Compute your monthly bills muna. Electricity, Water, Phone,Food allowance etc... wala pa diyan yung para sa mga anak mo, maintenance ng sasakyan baka maging negative yang 50k monthly salary mo pag dinagdagan mo pa ng bagong pagkakagastusan.

normally mabigat sa first year kasi yung amortization ay dadagdag sa monthly budget. but after a year, pay nag salary increase at bonuses, yun medyo giginhawa. so tiis muna sa first year

you buy a car because "its necessity"... same when you buy a house / lot because "its necessity"

1 house and lot is enough... 1 car is also enough...

you must remember that house / lot is not an investment at all... never buy a house and lot just for the sake of "having an investment" just like a car, a house needs to be maintained, maintain utilities and pay taxes.
