Which Jeep will cost you nine years of your life?

Would you be able to tell the difference between these two Jeeps if you saw them driving down the road? Would you care? I doubt it…

But Edmunds estimates the total monthly cost of ownership (including gas, insurance, maintenance, depreciation, etc) is about $731/month MORE for owning the Rubicon over the Sport version of the Jeep Wrangler. If your goal is to retire with a million dollars, investing $731/month more gets you there NINE YEARS SOONER over the course of a career. The difference between these two Jeeps could literally mean nine years of freedom in your life.‎‎
‎‎
And of course, these two exact cars don’t make sense for everyone. But our entire lives we’re presented with choices. Where we live and what we drive are two of our biggest financial choices. Is it possible for you to tweak either of those things to the tune of $731/month? How about $500 or $200? Would it be worth YEARS of your life to do so?‎‎
‎‎
As always, reminding you to build wealth by following the two PFC rules: 1.) Live below your means and 2.) Invest early and often.‎‎

Rent vs Buy

The great debate: rent or buy?

Last night I had this great idea in the shower. I was going to make a post to illustrate the devastating impact of buying a house and selling sooner than five years. The crushing 6% realtor fee (huge relative to a 20% down payment), the missed opportunity cost of investing that down payment, the nefarious impact of taxes, insurance, maintenance, mortgage interest and closing costs. It would serve as an illustration of how the financial benefit of owning is really only reaped after many years of ownership.‎
