Should I move out of parents house or buy a car first?
Ask your dad about the car. Is he willing to sell it to you cheap? Does he owe anything on it? If he owes, then pay that, also pay the insurance on it. Its best to have a vehicle if you live in an area that you have to have a car to get around, to work, and to school. You don't have to have a shiny new car.. just any car will do at your age. Then I would start saving up to move out. Look on www.craigslist.org for your area, to see what the rents are. Think about saving up at at least first month's, last month's and a security deposit equal to one month's rent. Also, that website is full of used stuff you can get as furniture for your place cheap. However, kitchen stuff and bathroom stuff its best to get new.. so start saving up for those little knickknacks as well! Volia! Before you know it you will have both objectives taken care of!
Should I buy a car before i move out or Move out and then buy a car?
Move out then buy a car. Unexpected expenses always come up during a move and you may as well get one more haul out of the jeep.
Buy a car, move out of state.?
It will make it easier If you already have an address in Utah, simply give the dealer the Utah address. He will provide you with the papers needed to register it when you get to Utah. If you don't have a Utah address, you will have to register and pay all of the MO fees and then pay again when you get to Utah. Don't forget to get Insurance on it preferably from a Utah agent or from a Mo. agent whose company is also licensed to sell insurance in Utah
Should i buy a car first or move out?
I'm in your same position, I have a 2003 altima that I'm really wanting to trade for a benz, but then again I really would like to move closer downtown where my school is. Its really what works best for you: Will you have transportation if you move out without a car? Is moving worth not having a car? You should consider getting a car and then moving out. That way you can always depend on yourself!
Should I buy a new car or move out of my moms house?
I'm 20 years old currently living at home. I work 24 hours a week at a nursing home with the option of picking up 1 5 hour shift a week. I also work once a week waitressing. I make about $1000 a month not counting what I make waitressing or if I pick up 5 hours. I drive an 02 Grand Prix and although there isn't anything really wrong with it, it has almost 193k miles on it and I'd really like something newer and nicer. If I got a new car I would spend about 10k and put a 5 yr loan on it. Living at home isn't bad but sometimes I find myself ready to move out. I tend to argue with my mom often, but on the other hand she's not home too much so it's not terribly bad. I just can't afford to do both. I would get another job or try to find something full time but I can't as I am in school. Things would probably be pretty tight for me if I moved out on my own, rent in my area costs 400-500. I could easily pay a car payment while living at home but when I think about the future I'm sure I will want to move out before I'm done with school and having a car payment might make it really hard. Should I buy a new car or move out?
Moving out of state for first time?
•I plan on getting an apartment, NOT a house •The only things I’m taking are my money, my car, and whatever clothes/items I can fit in my two backpacks Any tips on what I should go about doing first? P.S, my job I currently have is transferring me to the one where I’m moving, so I’m not jobless. My s/o lives there so if all fails he would take me in, but I don’t want that to be the FIRST thing I do. (Unless ot really has to be).
How can I move out of my home and start my life from scratch in a new city since my parents have made it impossible for me to live with them? They are very controlling and I have no freedom to go out or make my own decisions. I am 24.
Just make sure you have enough money saved up first. If you don’t have a job, that’s step one. Then save hard. Remember you will need a deposit on a place to live plus at least one month’s rent and maybe two. Do the maths carefully: what you will need for food, utilities, transport, all taxes etc etc. Find out what the removal truck will cost, if you need one. Decide if you’re getting a place furnished or unfurnished, and factor in the cost of furniture if the latter.If you’re going to a new city, that’s more expense because you need to get yourself there first and pay for accommodation while you look for a place to rent. Budget for at least a month staying in a cheap hostel or whatever. Plus storage for your stuff if you have a lot.If you don’t have a job in the new place? Save up enough money to live for at least 3–4 months while you find one. Remember that you’ll be working at least a month before they pay you.Just work out very carefully what you need, and whatever you think it is, add 20%, because you’ll have forgotten something, or something will go wrong.But perhaps you should consider whether it has to be another city. You could get your own place across town and just see your parents once a week or whatever. Moving away from all your friends and everything you know can be hard. If you set the right boundaries with your parents, it could work.Good luck!
Can we move a car using only the clutch in first gear and no gas at all?
In many manual transmission cars it is possible, by very gentle engagement of the clutch (that is, very gentle release of the clutch pedal) to pull away from standstill, on a level road. A downhill slope makes it easier. In times gone by, diesel powered cars were equipped with heavier flywheels than their gasoline powered counterparts. The power stored in these heavy flywheels would have been helpful in this exercise. Modern diesels use different flywheel technology to smooth power output but still deliver greater torque at low engine speeds, such as at tickover.Although I can only think of one good reason to do this, it is sometimes possible not to use the clutch at all. Simply by pushing the gearshift lever progressively more firmly into the first gear position, the gearbox's synchromesh mechanism alone may enable engagement of first gear, albeit with a jerk. This is bad for the car and not something I would do unless, for instance, the clutch cable had snapped and moving the car was essential for safety reasons. Another option in that scenario would be to stop the engine, push shift lever fully into first gear postition if possible, then turn and hold the ignition key in the start position. With a healthy battery, the car should be pulled slowly forward by the starter motor and the engine could well start, at which point the ignition key should be released. Once out of trouble, the car could be stopped by cutting power, moving the shift lever to neutral and/or applying the brakes. Remember that we're talking about a car with manual transmission - none of the foregoing is of any relevance to automatics. Nor should it be construed as advice, recommendation or even safe to do in any particular situation. The techniques are simply a few that have worked for me.
How much money did you have saved up before you moved out of your parents house?
I was 22 when I moved out of my parents house. I had about $1000 of usable cash and $5000 credit to fill up the apartment with necessities. (I warn you against doing such; if you don't spend wisely that credit will hurt you in the end with debt.)I am the "breadwinner" of the household, with my income ~$800 biweekly and my fiance ~$600 monthly (she is a college student).It's been close to 2 years and although times get hard we cannot imagine willingly going back to our previous living situations. Not that they were bad, it's just hard losing the sense of freedom once you obtain it. If you are thinking of doing so, it can never hurt stockpiling cash until you have more than enough to cover deposit, necessities and I'd say 3-6 months of rent. Worse case scenarios happen far too often, and usually without enough warning. I love in Northern California btw.P.S. You will most likely have to borrow, more than once. We have all been there. You aren't the first and will not be the last. Don't beat yourself up about it when you do.
Is it best to move out of your parents home or learn to drive first?
I believe this is entirely situational.Your parents are there to teach and provide for you, as such I'm a firm believer that you should milk it for all it's worth!If they can teach you to drive or pay for you to be taught, then grab that opportunity with both hand and don't let go!This is only one of many valuable skills they can help you aquire. Likewise, financially they can support you whilst you set your life up to live on easy street…Again though situational, relationships, quality of parenting, financial viability, location..all things must be concidered when making a major life choice like when to move out of home.
