    Sayang lang ang investment sir kapag wala kang matinong parking... baka hindi ka abutin ng six months may makikita ka na kinakalawang sa ride mo
    never naging investment ang motor vehicle...hinde naman 6 months kakalawagin na, ano yan first gen starex or honda civic esi?

    yun pala eh lipat ka na lang..sa mandaluyong pala work mo hanap ka na lang malapit na apartment doon...walking distance to your work hinde mo na kailangan ng kotse.

    Better to find a closer place to rent. Dami sa Pasig - Manda area that's cheaper when compared to Makati; some even have parking (although usually pila na yung mga gusto mag rent pag ganun).

    Hindi pa tapos si SMDC Light residences (along EDSA) from what i see. Malamang next year pa yan.

    The Boni Circle is notorious for this. I used to live in Citihomes across Shell on San Francisco Street. Usually umaabot na hanggang bungad ng driveway ang baha. Mas mabilis naman mag subside since they set up a pumping station there pero kung timing andun ka langoy talaga

    ^They're working on the drain system at the Maysilo Circle/Boni ave area now. Hope that helps.

    The inlets are too small so even a small amount of garbage blocks them agad. I still remember wading through singit-high floodwaters in the wee hours of the morning. Walked all the way from Guadalupe to Boni via EDSA then from there to Citihomes because there were no jeepneys. Brrrr....

    Nueve Street (behind Cherry) turns into a flowing river when it rains. First time I experienced a bow wave go right over my Lancer. Buti na lang di tumirik.

    In the condo where I live, those without parking space will either fight it out with other car owners to get the limited street parkings (which is unguarded) or bribe the guards to point to them those parking slots whose owners do not have cars or abroad. For those parking on the street, they hang a PNP uniform by the window hoping it will serve as a deterent. Now for my advise, if you are worried about additional spending for garage, consider the other expenses that go with the car - gas and maintenance.

    I have a lady friend who just got promoted and to go with the status, she decided to rent a condo and bought a car. When payday came, she was crying and appealed to accounting to spread her tax because she cannot meet her bills.

    If you do not have enough savings to pay for rent and car, think again.

    My family had a couple of condo parking slots that were unused since my dad passed away and it pisses me off big time when i pass by and see that another unit owner uses it. There was even a case last year that an ass#hole even had the gall to get a sticker with our slot number on it! Kung hindi lang madadamay yung slots beside us, i wanted to block the slot with our car and leave it blocked for several days.

    I have a lot of guy friends that have never been to a motel because they only go for conservative girls. A guy friend also told me that going to a motel is so juvenile. He said that if a guy is already working, he should be able to afford a hotel or have his own place na. I have always respected his opinion But for those who engage in paid *** or one night stands, it makes sense to go to a motel instead.

    ano ba yung bibilhin na car? bago ba or luma? hulugan ba or cash?

    binasa ko lahat wala kasi ako napansin na nabanggit eto.

    kung hulugan nako po... sigurado kaba sa gagawin mo baka mawala lang yang pinag ipunan mo... dahil sa aking palagay sakto sakto lang ang kinikita mo.

    kung 2nd hand... unahin mo muna ang bahay bago ang lahat... hindi investment ang car ang pagkatandaan dahil habang tumatagal bumababa ang value nyan. kung sanay ka naman magcommute tiis tiis muna.

    ako ang inuna ko magkaroon muna nang bahay na sarili bago ako bumili nang kotse na bago... remember before noong nasa manila pa ako nakatira binigyan ako nang company car eh wala na maparkingan dahil tatay ko may dalawang kotse ang ginawa namin pinabutas yung isang apartment namin na ginawa naming garahe sakto wala naman nakatira pa. hindi naman bumaba ang upa kasi busy location sya.

    Depende sa priority sir. Normally pag single pa car ang importante. Ang bahay kasi permanent structure na, hindi pwede dalhin kung saan2 para I-display

    Fyi, a parking space for a condominium unit would cost somewhere between 600-800K per slot.

    hindi mo ba alam na mas may pogi points sa girl kung pinagyayabang mo na may sarili ka nang bahay.

    you can party with her all the time at walang istorbo.

    So true. Parang cost na rin ng isang tsikot. Now you need to consider the effect of color coding.

    yung bitek? ambilis nun!


    ts, hanap ka na lang ng apartment na malapit sa work mo. tapos ipon ka para pag bumili ka na ng condo may parking na kasama. then saka ka bumili ng kotse. set your priorities right.
