I'm 24, I was going to get house, I can afford, but then I wouldn't have money to have fun?
I just paid 600 to get out a plan to get a home. I make enough money to get house, so I decided to get a real big cool one. But when I was in the process of the getting the loan I regretted it. For the time in my life I have money, I'm buying sutff like soccer balls, footballs, baseball equipment, rockclimbing equipment, good rollerblades, I can save and maybe go to China, or make a trip to Japann. I always wanted trampoline, and I can get one. I can afford things now like going horseback riding, going scuba, I lvoe being able to afford bowling, and even pay for someone else's dinner. I was going to lose all that if I had gone ahead and taken the loan to get the house. I just wouldn't be able to afford spoiling myself. Am I stupid for backing down?

once you have a house you can get loads of loans
2 :
get a better job growing up is tuff.
3 :
if you cant afford spoiling yourself, then you just cant "afford" that kind of house yet. you have to think of your income to expense ratio. if your expense is way over 50% of your income, you should reconsider.
4 :
well whats more important.......a house that you can see yourself in and do whatever you want to it? or having fun and partying and all and doing stupid stuff......& not being able to fix up anything called "fun"? Ask yourself. i think you did pass up a really good deal and most other people would love a house.
5 :
Yes, get the loan and buy the house. You will still be able to do those other things just in moderation. The investment of a home outweighs everything else and will have loads more value in 30 years than your memory of falling off your trampoline that one time when you were drunk!
6 :
Get a house, but get a smaller one. You don't need all that extra room. Then you can afford both.
7 :
If I were again 24, I would spoil myself first and consider getting a house when I am 35-40!
8 :
Yes I think its reasonable to say so. I had the opportunity 9 yrs ago when I was 18yr old to go on a superb vacation to Europe. I instead opted to buy my first house. I sold it a Cpl years later, and after great tax benefits I also made money when I sold it & with all the money I made I was able to put it down and buy a more expensive house. I have kept moving up every two years & now I am in a 1.5 million dollar home and I have taken trips all arpund the world from my great investments. So you may feel like you will suffer in the beggining but its worth it to be responsible & make the sacrifice. You will reap the much greater rewards later.
9 :
all those things you are buying are short term fun, you will not be using them in 20 years, a house is something you will be using. It's better to own a house than to pay rent, all you have left after a year of renting a place is a years worth of rent reciepts. With a house you are building equity. Compromise and get a smaller house to start with, the payments will be lower and you will still have money to play with. Long term you will be much farther ahead with a house.
10 :
You're 24. If you're still unsure at 44, then worry. Owning a house is a huge responsibility. Better to back out now than regret it in a short time.
11 :
The thing you describe are stuff that lasts maybe a day or two, or a couple weeks if it's a trip. You're going to need a place to live always so why not make it a nice as you can. Besides, you will make more money in the future, you will be able to pick those things back up when you do. Also, did you adjust your taxes for the write-off your going to get from the house, that could be an extra $3000 a year and up depending on the price of the house.
12 :
You should go with a slightly small house, so you can have a little of both. Also, the toys are indeed fun, but the fun wears out after a few uses. I try to rent cool toys unless I know I am going to use them many times. For example, I wanted to get a nice boat, but after working the numbers it's cheaper to rent one once every month or two. A house serves two purposes, (1) you need to live somewhere and (2) after living there for years, you will build up equity in the property, which sure beats throwing the $ out the window to a landlord.
13 :
If I was 24, and making a good wage, I would bank it like crazy. I wouldn't buy a house yet, because you never know what's going to come up in your life. I wouldn't want to be tied down to a house, but I wouldn't want to blow my money either. At 24, you could begin saving big time for retirement, and quit work in 25 years with proper investing - instead of working until you're 70. Of course, with good planning, it's possible to have the house and the retirement. :)
14 :
have fun, spend for whatever gives you pleasure. dont complicate your life until you're ready, there's plenty of time for that. when you're finished 'sowing your wild oats' you will be glad to settle down and accumulate assets both tangible and intangible.
15 :
Well the first thing is I would look at is maybe a less expensive house. If that house is such a good deal, or you cant get something like it than I would really try to swing it. In time you will make more money and also maybe able to re finance for a lower payment later on. A house is the best investment you can make. In time you will be able to afford much better toys. Trust me I am 37years old and juts bought my first house 2 years ago. when I was your age I was too busy running around in sports cars that are now broken and gone, old memories of trips to the Bahamas and Vegas, and a low bank account .Now I have years to go before things level out and I can start to enjoy my life again. I cant stress enough how lucky you are and how much you should take advantage of this opportunity and really stick with it. It a long term investment that will pay off.
16 :
Why not get a more modest house as your first home? Then your mortgage would be a little more manageable but you'd still have some "mad money" every month. Buying real estate is such a good investment; at your age, you could be setting yourself up very nicely by getting into the real estate market so young.
17 :
you made a big mistake for backing out! you need to read about the "benefits and tax breaks" for owning a home. As you are single you must pay tax about 25-28% of income. By owning a home, the property tax, interest on the mortgage are deductible so that your tax rate may drop to 20%. In the mean time, properties ALWAYS appreciate in time (5 to 10 yrs). So if you need $$ you can open a home equity line of credit on your property and the interest is again tax deductible!! Things that you like for fun and have do not appreciate in time and they will most likely end up in Ebay (if you are lucky) or in garage sales!!
18 :
Well if your buying a big house you could allways rent out rooms so you have money to spend. Sound like a plan, I do you realy need a big house you could always buy a smaller one.
19 :
Get the house and get a room mate.
20 :
You are in luck! As housing market continues to slump, it is a good time NOT to buy. :) http://money.cnn.com/2006/08/24/real_estate/pluggedin_tully.fortune/index.htm http://money.cnn.com/2006/09/07/news/economy/housing_forecast.reut/index.htm?postversion=2006090713 As housing market slump, it is easier to calculate "Rent vs. Buy" scenario. Because "appreciation" is no longer a factor. Mortgage payment consists of two parts: interests and principal. Interests are like rent, which doesn't add to the equity to your house. It simply disappear as your pay it. If interests portion of the mortgage payment is roughly equal to rent of equivalent property, then it is a decent buy. For example, let's buy a $500,000 condo with 0% down and apply interests only loan (just like renting a place). Mortgage payment would be $3250/month. It is a bad buy, because you can enjoy same property for $2000/month. Please note that I assume the tax benefits from home cancel out fees from home association and property tax. For more accurate calculation, consult with your CPA or accountant. But NOT your realtor, whom will say anything to get the deal to go through. And again, if you like a particular property, then paying more may be reasonable. You are the only person who can decide how much more premium you are willing to pay.
21 :
You are not stupid for backing down. I suggest you pursue buying a house, but a more modest one. It will grow in value. Keep buying "up" as you can afford.

No actions are required. Such debts are typically in the form of bonds, and are not redeamable on demand. Instead, the holder recieves interest payments, and redeems the principle at maturity.

Author Ted C. Fishman writes in China, Inc., "The Country is closing in on a 30-year run during which its economy has doubled nearly three times over. The surge has no equal in modern history. Neither Japan's nor South Korea's postwar booms come anywhere close." ------------- and they say..........this growth trend is unstoppable! -------------- In 1776 a few fat farmers got together and with the penmanship of a poet wrote down on a piece of paper.... the American dream! Now..............young people in America.......... think $10 an hour....a ipod, computer games and flipping burgers is................... that American dream!

How much money would you be willing to pay to have China just keep Obama over there?
How much money would you be willing to pay to have China just keep Obama over there?
I'd be willing to pay a couple thousand. Any body else? We can just take up a collection and make them a offer.

You don't sound like you have the intellect to make a couple thousand dollars.

All the money that was going to be used for the Health Care Reform! But, only if the take Biden, Pelosi, and Reid with him!

You want war with China? Or have you just not thought this through?

It would be a lot cheaper to stage some kind of crime and have him arrested. What if we were all to send him tire guages--a reminder of Obama's brilliant energy policy, and a reminder that he tried an economic war on China over tires, and they could all say "made in Taiwan". I don't know if that's illegal, but it would be funny.

if he is such a communist, wouldn't he ruin coporation's chances of exploiting the cheap labor over there?

I would go borrow money in order to keep that 9jv9qeruvqeru over there.

Nothing. Get used to him for 7 more years. lol

We could pay off our debt by selling them Obama, who seems to fit in perfectly there. Just manipulate them the right way and throw in Biden, Hilary, Pelosi, and Van Jones.

Sounds like you're trying to incite hatred against the president of the United States.

Well if it wasn't Obama, it'd be some other puppet, no? $0. Besides, what would the "them" you are talking about (the banking elite oligopoly who print the money they then loan to the governments, which the government can then never afford to pay back), what would these people want or need with your measly offerings? Try offering them your soul instead.........

Zero, he is my president just as much as he is yours. . Independent Not a partisan idiot .
20 :
Well since the yen is going to overtake the dollar during Obamanation's term, no cost is too high to prevent more of his "change" "We can just take up a collection and make them a offer." spare change to spare us from his "change"
21 :
I say we print up another trillion, this time the money will be well spent.
22 :
It wouldn't be nearly enough. Not with the exorbitant interest rates the Chinese would charge people like you. :0)

Have you seen the movie 2012 Yet? Well my friends the world as we know it comes to an end in a massive errupting flood. Only the wealthy can afford tickets to get on a man made Ark but millions of people die. Would you still have enough money after your "collection" here to throw around to pay for a ticket to get on the Ark? Obama would get on that ark for free you know...... and ah.....by the way..... in the movie the ark is in China. LMAO.

What makes you think the Chinese-Communist are susceptible to bribery? I do believe that the Chinese-Commiunists are quite a bit more intelligent than liberals in this country (USA) so I doubt that they would be STUPID ENUFF to keep him

You wanna go to china and you're only 15, and you wanna meet you're boyfriends family. Jeez you can't get married next year or anything. This would be a waste of your money, you and your BF will probably break up soon anyway. Even if you had a ride, you can't work until you're 16.

Do you really think they care? It's about getting the job done.

Americans want to pay as little as they can for the product, thus basically all of our stuff is made in China. China doesn't have as strict of guidelines about health/safety as America, so to them the products are perfectly fine.

My 4 grandsons are or were playing with some of those toys and it Pisses me off that was allowed to happen

Different countries have different standards and there is a learning curve.

1 1/2 billion people in China... I doubt that individual safety (anyone's) is much of a concern...when you got that much international buying power..you can get away with much..
