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.

TheKanataThrilla (22h) : NFL Network is broadcasting the game tonight, but not in Canada. Not sure why as no local television is showing the game.

beast (8-Aug) : But the Return from IR designations had to be applied by the 53 man cutdown.

beast (8-Aug) : It's a new rule, so it's not clear, but my understanding was that they could be IR'd at any time

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : *had to be IRed at 53

Mucky Tundra (8-Aug) : beast, I thought the designate return from IR players had to be IR at cutdowns to 53, not before

beast (8-Aug) : It's a brand new rule, either last season or this season, prior, all pre-season IRs were done for the season

beast (8-Aug) : But the Packers would have to use one for their return from IR spots on him, when they cut down to 53.

beast (8-Aug) : I think the NFL recently changed the IR rules, so maybe the season might not be over for OL Glover.

Zero2Cool (8-Aug) : Packers star Howton, first NFLPA prez, dies at 95 😔

dfosterf (8-Aug) : Apparently it is too complicated for several to follow your simple instructions, but I digress

Zero2Cool (6-Aug) : found bad sql in database, maybe site faster now?

dfosterf (5-Aug) : I'm going to call that a good move.

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Packers sign CB Corey Ballentine

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : I'm not sure how to kill the draft order just yet so it's not so confusing.

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : *to be able

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : and because it's not a dynasty league (which makes a lot more sense to be ability to trade picks)

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Oh I know; I was just exploring and it blew my mind that you could trade picks because of the whole reordering thing

Mucky Tundra (4-Aug) : Zero, I think I preferred my offer: your 1st for my 15th rounder

Zero2Cool (4-Aug) : Keep in mind, we do a draft reorder once all members locked in
