I can only imagine the idiots in this thread that don’t understand the opportunity cost of money.

I’d finance a car for 30 years if they’d let me. Much rather have the money and invest it that have it sitting in a car, depreciating in my driveway


And you don't seem to understand risk adjusted rates of return.

You can't compare a 7% stock market return to a 3% car lone.

Sure you are. You don’t even own your own studio apt but now you’re going into the section 8 business?

No, but I would never have one. Which is also why it would probably never break me. Chicken and egg.

Mingo—I understand your point, but we are talking about a car, not a 500k house (in regards to financing/investing the difference).

Playing the interest rate spread over 5 years is a lot different than over 30 years.

DCA what would be the monthly car payment into investments.

I don't live in a studio and it's a mil plus to buy in my hood, I'm happy renting for now. I'm looking at income properties in a much lower COL area.

with the little income you have, no equity, no collateral....you're 21 years old and your balls haven't even dropped yet....good luck pal....there's no way you will come up with 20% down for an investment property.

To be fair you don’t need 20% down for a owner occupied duplex.

There is certainly a cutoff where a state would consider you a resident, typically 184 days (though some states are stricter than others). As a California resident, for example, you are taxed on all income. As a nonresident working in California, you are only taxed on income from California sources. I believe there is a part-time resident status for CA as well, but I've never had to worry about the minutiae as I work 14 or less days in states outside of my home state, and never have established a permanent residence.

He said he wasn’t moving. He said he was looking at buying a duplex as a income property.

So it won’t be owner occupied.
