So I think what I'm going to end up doing is similar. I've got around 22k equity in my current car so I'll basically use that to pay the lease each month. Then I'll take the $600 ish a month that I was going to finance, and put that into an investment that appreciates. |
How do you have 22k positive equity on your car? Have you never driven it? Kind of hard to believe there's 22k positive equity on a car after it's been purchased.
I'm assuming you mean you'll get 22k for it.... |
I'm getting 27k for it and I have 5k left on the financing. Not difficult math
