from The News Minute USA · host Daniel M. Johnson

THE 10/10 METHOD: The Financial Samurai Blogger recommends spending NO MORE than 10% of your gross income on a car that you keep for at least 10 years. Owning a reliable used car like this allows you the discretionary income to invest elsewhere, you won’t have the financial stress of being burdened by high payments, and you’ll be financially free to spend in other areas where you might get more personal enjoyment.
