just moved in
 

hey i just moved into my first place finally. it's nothing crazy just a condo in jackson and i was wondering if you guys have any tips or advice for me lol.

Does anyone here rent and if you are renting do you have renters insurance if so what do you recommend?:scratch:

congrats, i just moved out of my rents, but i living with my friend and his mother, ehh w/e its much better than home.

congrats on the move. if you have valuables having renters insurance is worth it. i believe i've seen commercials saying it cost like 12 dollars a month.
try to save for a down payment on something that will be yours one day. i know it's hard to save especially if your young, w/child and paying high rent fees but give it a try. good luck

nice man. i was out in jackson over the weekend and i kinda wanna move there. much quieter.

i used to live out in plumsted. nice area. really quiet. the big wawa on 537 by six flags is alright but if you go to the one on 528 they make better sammiches :wink:

thanks guys yea i heard it was pretty cheap and yea jackson is very quiet i love it out here and i am saving we actually put a bid on a house but our credit was a little too low so we are building that up now so should work out later on i hope

kool man hope things work out for you.

thank i hope so too it's expensive filling this place up haha

:werd: I kick myself every day for spending ALL my money on cars when I was a kid. I would save up for the next mod, the next car payment, the next whatever, and never saved for a house. When I got married at 29 (in 2002) I actually had to sell my 2000 Maxima back to the dealership because I couldn't afford a car payment and my mortgage payment. I didn't want to risk defaulting on the loan, and I couldn't find anyone to buy the car. My wife did well financially (she had saved the down-payment for our house) but she didn't bail me out - I think to teach me a lesson. :) I bought a beat '86 Olds Cutlass and drove it for over a year until I straightened out my finances.

I say this to every young person on the board with mod fever - SAVE, SAVE, SAVE!!!

yea ive had my car for 2 years and ive been saving so all i have is intake and exhaust lol b/c i put my money towards the important things

you def. want renters insurance it's inexpensive and if the condo burns down you lose everything the owners insurance covers their property not you or your belongings.

true true thanks i'm looking into it right now

GF? Wife? shes always right

TIP #5438012 = Invest in a Febreeze.

or just keep your house clean and not smelling like pits :nod:
