    I got in a debate with my girlfriend's ex-boyfriend over this. He said to never buy a car, get a loan or lease. His reasoning is that he wants the best car to drive RIGHT NOW, and saving up to buy a car later doesn't meet his goals at all. Getting rich in the long run doesn't matter, it's just getting the best stuff right now.

      If your goal is truly always to have the best possible new car you are able to make payments on right now, then he’s executing perfectly on that goal. It’s just a very expensive goal that becomes a lot more accessible if you just save up for the first one and then buy with cash from then onwards, continuing to save up for the next one. You only have to drive a cheap car for the first cycle. This guy probably has a constant high monthly payment that he could apply to saving for his next car. Unless he leases, but in that case he gets zero trade-in so it probably evens out.

      You may have done this. But the issue is you need to project the outcome of both paths 15 years into the future. You cannot assume the spread will actually make it better.
      I'm in a similar situation. I have a 2.865% house loan that at full maturity is in 20 years. Which also happens to be my planned retirement time frame (I love my work). However, when I run my numbers it's a complete wash. If I invest early or pat off early than invest. I have basically the exact same net worth. Technically paying it off early ends up about 20-40k better, but that amount over 20 years could be gained or lost by one choice. It's not enough to declare a winner.
      So I'm doing what your doing and shooting for a 5-10 year payoff while aggressively saving. But my point is I would highly encourage you if you haven't done it to do a break even analysis. You might end up being surprised at the result. The invest spread thing people say.. it's bad math.

    I've invested instead of paying off the mortgage. Investing HALF my original mortgage balance (over the course of 3 years) has made 90% of the interest I would pay over the entire 15 years. To be fair, I am taxed on that, so it's only about a 7% annual spread after-tax. Thankfully my wife doesn't want to pay off the mortgage either! :)

    The videos about cars are always interesting because if you actually look at the math, I’m still trying to figure it out myself. in order to buy Let’s say just to pick a number $30,000 car probably like an average price car these days maybe a little less even, to buy that $30,000 car in cash you would have to still save up money monthly. That’s just going into something like a savings account until you have the money to buy it in cash. Once you spend that 30,000 in cash, you can no longer invest that money because all of the money in one big lump sum chunk is now in a depreciating asset. The vehicle will continue to depreciate to the point it’s worth nothing or is also straddled with repairs. If you invest that 30k into a mutual fund for the same length as a car loan, let’s say 60 months, the 30k you initially put in will now be worth around $53,000. A gain of $23,000. If you spend the 30k up front then invest the money you would have otherwise spent on a car payment over the next 60 months let’s say $500ish dollars, you won’t have anywhere near that because you are making compound interest on the whole 30k the entire time, sure it’s not crazy money and Dave is right that alone won’t make you rich but to say that a car payment is what’s keeping people broke if they do that method is just inaccurate. Even if he’s right and you won’t make that much money doing that method investing the spread, it’s still a negligible amount between the two that one is not gonna make you more broke in the longer and then the other.

    This is an odd conversation. The point is they are in debt with car payments. The interest amount is not relevant. I believe the guy is thinking that the interest rate is so low that over time inflation will overtake it and he will be paying less in real currency value. The problem is their cash flow is going into an "asset" that only goes down. A savvy person gets a crappy used car that they can purchase and uses the rest of their cash flow to invest. As Dave says, car payments are the payday loans of the middle class. I also agree that anything she says wont work because his thinking is irrational and and reasoning wont work with an irrational person.

    Dave's premise only works if you can pay off the entire amount owed on the vehicles. Take my situation. I owe $215,000 at 2.5% on my 15 year fixed mortgage. I also maintain a bank account at the same bank that has the mortgage (my bank balance is less than $215,000). The bank account pays 4.91%. It would be stupid of me to use all of the money in my account to pay down my 2.5% mortgage balance while foregoing a 4.91% interest rate. If I had the full $215,000 to pay the mortgage off, the situation might be different. So for every dollar $10,000 I keep in the account, I make about $200 extra after taxes each year by keeping the money in my account and not paying my mortgage early. Additionally, I have autopay setup on this account, so on the first of every month, the bank pulls the mortgage payment out of the bank account and the monthly payment is made!

  • @pdxmusl1510
    @pdxmusl1510 Před měsícem

    Its not just most of this but the rate comparison doesn't check out. Its bad math. You cannot compare percent paid vs percent earned and actually come to any conclusion. The math is nonsense. You can take any two numbers and i/you can demonstrate and give example situations where all 3 outcomes are true. Paying it off early. Keeping it & investing early. Or a complete wash and it doesn't matter what you do. You have to project the pattern out to full term. So if the keep the loan path is 5 years and paying it off early is two. You need to project that outcome 5 years in the future. Which you need stable predictable spending patterns. Income patterns. Investment patterns. And it all assumes theres no surprises. Like what if at year 3 your daughter has a major medical problem that insurance doesn't fully cover. Or someone looses a job.
    And even then.. The actual outcome depends on you acting on that plan. And what you would actually do. Like dave said.. hes probably not actually investing anything. So if you figure out investing while paying off is better but you don't actually invest... then you just made a choice and your using this quote to justify whats probably a bad decision.
    Now i do disagree on some points with dave. Not every step needs to result in millions in returns. Sometimes you just have to ask the question which path im better off with. I had a recent emergency where my roof and my hvac system gave out. I just happened to have enough in my emergency fund for both. I prefer a higher emergency fund than dave teaches. I also had a financial goal i really wanted to hit. Two things incompatible. I hate loans. So im with dave loans suck. But my rule for loans is they need to leave you better off when they are done or you don't do one. I did a no interest loan. And the reason is because i did invest. And the math checks out. Im almost done with my plan and reality ended up being even better. Ill hit my financial goal and itll all be paid off by the end of the year. If i hadn't. I would have came up several thousand short. Sometimes that actually matters. Dave misses that point.

    She just wants to manipulate him to doing something he doesn't want to do. And according to Dave magical mutual funds the spread makes sense.

    Honestly 2% on a car why would u pay it off? Dave cant do math

      well, if you could listen, neither of the payments is 2%. One is 2.94% and 3.49%.
      Dave explained the math and why its lame. Arbitraging your car is a bonehead move.

    Maybe because instead of paying the cars off he's making 8%+ with the money in the markets. So by his logic why would I give up the investments to pay off these debts. Ramsay completely misses this and assumes this guy thinks the cars are investments. Let's say the guy knows they are depreciating assets and let's say he knows the math and has the money in cash in investments.

      Nope. He addresses it like he doesn't have the cash to pay the cars off today and isn't making 12% in the market. I'm not saying I agree get into debt, that adds risk. But don't strawman arguments, always attempt to steelman them.
