Have a Budget and know exactly how much extra money you can save each month – I think setting a limit on how much you want to spend is usually not realistic although it’s the best way to start – But the problem is, that we are not basing your choice on money, but instead on likes – I like the Tacoma, and they cost 40k so that’s my goal – Instead of saying I have a budget of 20k, let’s see what cars I can get for that Here is my Simple Budget: – Know your Real Cost of living ( Shelter, Utilities, groceries, and transportation and find ways to cut these, because about 80% of your cost comes from this ) – And cut out all the other things you don’t really need – So if I make 4k and my leftover income is $1000, then I know that’s how much cash I have However: – I like the rule Dave has, no more than half your annual income on a car and pay cash – But honestly, I would say buy the best car you can, for the least amount of money now, and then when you have money in the future, buy the car you want – Instead, buy the car you need now 2. Open up a separate bank account just to save that money – This is important, make sure this account is separate from the one you have right now – Make sure it doesn’t have a debit card – And make sure you don’t have instant transfers – Also, that is FDIC insured and has no fees and a competitive yield Here are some ideas: – Sofi – Discover – Ally – Capital one Why is this so important: – Having the money separate helps you remember this money has a purpose – Having no debit card, helps you not be able to spend the money – And having no fees, well you why 3. Know the exact cost of the vehicle because it won’t just be the sticker price – Yes you know the sticker price – But you should also know this Know this: – The sticker price – registration fee in your state – Sales tax – And dealer doc fee Never pay these fees: I saw a video on this – Freight, should be built into the price – Dealer prep ( paid by manufacturer) Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tuN5mH0mDKM 4. Research the Model and Trims of the vehicle you want – Here is an example on how I saved about 10k before even buying the car I wanted – I wanted a Toyota Tacoma TRD pro because I liked the grill and cosmetics Turns out : – I can get the SR5 trims for a few thousand dollars less – Get a car that’s a bit older also – And save a lot money this way and just buy the grill I like and call it a day This is important: – Because If the car you want goes from being 30k to 25k just by changing trims that’s awesome – And goes from 25k to 15k just by buying a bit older that is awesome * PRO TIP* INFORMATION IS EVERYTHING 💲Patreon Exclusive💲 https://www.patreon.com/tommybryson 👕Merch👕 https://teespring.com/stores/tommybryson ✅2 FREE AUDIOBOOKS✅ https://amzn.to/2Enayo8¬¬¬ 🎁ACORN FREE $5🎁 Link: https://acorns.com/invite/38EYSU ⚡FREE KINDLE UNLIMITED⚡ (traditional reading) Link: https://amzn.to/2VGbxt9 👨🏽💻DISCORD PRIVATE GROUP👨🏽💻 https://discord.gg/EcZEHpA My Camera Gear: https://www.amazon.com/shop/tommybryson ✔ Help Us Reach 600,000 Subscribers: https://goo.gl/0wvm6w 😎All My Social Media😎 Link: https://linktr.ee/tommybryson *Some of the links and other products that appear on this video are from companies in which Tommy Bryson will earn an affiliate commission or referral bonus.
