In Good condition, KBB says the trade-in value is $10,925 ... that moped idea is looking better and better.

I'll start off by applauding Dakota and ZS for the advice.

That's like a maffia-loan you've taken there. 15%? That's monstrous.

I reckon that you'll be paying the same amount monthly? The nice cars salesman was right then, I reckon, that you'll be paying $40,- per month on average, but you'll start off with some ridiculous payments, excisting mainly out of rent and very little in the way of actually paying off your debt.

Anyway, hope you get out of this crap! Best of luck to you, Kevin!

Shuffling papar costs a lot of money. Those boys are all criminals.

You should come up for some beekeeping. Remember, Old man Dakota might be an asshole, but he has your best interest at heart.

Jun 25, 2010 - two student loans

There's a second credit card, but can't find when it was opened. I only use one card and only use it for gas just to keep it active.

I wouldn't worry about the effect on your credit score. Think of credit as a crutch that should be everybody's goal to get rid of. Even if it somehow hurt your credit score to pay it off early you will be miles ahead in terms of $. Paying it off early will be one step closer to getting rid of the crutch, and once you are rid of it it wouldn't matter what your credit score was, right? Credit scores will only matter to those that need the crutch. Look at the money you are paying on interest. Once the loan is paid off you can still make those "payments" to your savings. By the time it comes to buy another car you should be able to pay cash.

**Full disclaimer** I have loans (student and mortgage), but am focused on paying them off aggressively.

Zero2Cool (10h) : USFL MVP QB Alex McGough moved to WR. So that's why no WR drafted!

earthquake (14h) : Packers draft starters at safety ever few years. Collins, Clinton-Dix, Savage

beast (16h) : Why can't the rookies be a day 1 starter? Especially when we grabbed 3 of them at the position

dfosterf (19h) : Not going to be shocked if Gilmore goes to the Lions.

dfosterf (20h) : I hear you dhazer, but my guess would be Gilmore Colts and Howard Vikings from what little has been reported.

Mucky Tundra (30-Apr) : S learn from McKinney who learns from Hafley who learns from the fans. Guaranteed Super Bowl

Zero2Cool (30-Apr) : could*

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Safeties should learn from Xavier.

dhazer (29-Apr) : And what about grabbing a Gilmore or Howard at CB ? Those are all Free Agents left

dhazer (29-Apr) : out of curiosity do they try and sign Simmons or Hyde to let these young safeties learn from, they can't be day 1 starters.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : I miss having Sam Shields.

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : Not that he's making excuses, just pointing it out

Zero2Cool (29-Apr) : That's for dang sure. Make our erratic kicker have no excuse!

packerfanoutwest (28-Apr) : having a great long snapper is gold

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : LaFleur looking like he had some weight. Coachin will do that lol

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Thanks Mucky and whomever created topcos for each pick!

Zero2Cool (28-Apr) : Insane about Kingsley

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Putring it here so Mucky sees it. He was our guy!

dfosterf (28-Apr) : Bowden long snapper Wisconsin. Consensus best LS in college.

dfosterf (28-Apr) : We got Peter Bowde

dfosterf (28-Apr) : I personally interpret that as a partial tear that can be recovered from with rehab

dfosterf (28-Apr) : MLF said Kingsley Enagbare did NOT tear his ACL and did NOT require surgery, and that he is "looking good" for the 2024 season!

beast (28-Apr) : T.O. son signs with the 49ers

Mucky Tundra (28-Apr) : damn those vikings

beast (27-Apr) : Reportedly Packers have UDFAs Jennings and Jones

beast (27-Apr) : OL – Donovan Jennings, USF OT – Trente Jones, Michigan

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : Interesting draft. A bit shocked that we didn't select an early CB. Definitely have Safety help. Pretty happy overall.

dhazer (27-Apr) : wow the last 2 picks are really stupid and probably will be special teams players Top 10 draft pick next year book it

TheKanataThrilla (27-Apr) : I think he ended up with a terrible RAS score

dhazer (27-Apr) : Anyone know what went on with Kitchens from Florida? At 1 point he was to be the Packers 1st round and he is way down the board now

Martha Careful (27-Apr) : Z, could you please combine my thread with yours please. I obviously did not see it when I Created it
