Don’t Do This To Get Chicks!

[Music] brought to you by the every dooll app start budgeting for free today Kevin's in Austin Texas hi Kevin how are you Dave Jade good to talk to you guys you too Merry Christmas hey Merry Christmas absolutely I got a quick question for you um so I'm 27 single I live in Austin Texas the home prices out here are astronomical I'm in baby step 3B I saved up about 50,000 for that down payment and I have about 10,000 in an emergency fund um you're in good shape well done oh I appreciate it thank you sir my question is is that uh I'm still single and my good buddy Roy has been saying for a long time Kevin ain't no one is going to want to datat you when you're driving that old Honda Accord you need to get you a sports car what your good buddy Roy is an idiot oh man I love Roy I really do I do too but Roy don't know how to pick a woman if woman is going to come to you because of the car you drive you're not get much of a woman oh man I pretty much agree with you wisdom in a multitude of counselors I'm I'm going around um dude I was on my third date with my wife in a 1974 Monty Carlo and we went AC I was telling her that some I had $2 dollar to my name and I was telling her someday I'm going to be a millionaire and we went across the railroad tracks and the muffler fell off my car we've been married 43 years wow she's been through bankruptcy and been a millionaire twice riding around with that guy with no muffler on his car yep absolutely tell Roy not to not give any more women advice oh man I I agree with you on that I do but I I also have a little bit of a bug I'd love to have okay now we're getting to it to do with women or Roy he was blaming on you heit he exit on I'm a stickler I'm a stickler and I don't spend the money on myself like that so I don't know is it what you try what you got to fever for what you got to fever for Kevin well I'd like to get me a 2016 Camaros i' like might have some miles on it you know something fun sweet what's it cost uh I I I was thinking about pulling about 30k out of the down payment and taking that to go get me a toy is what I'm doing well what do you earn every what what do you earn annually 120 all right so and you're single yeah we've established that you're looking for a woman yeah okay that's right um all right so listen if you make $120,000 a year you have $50,000 in cash and you want to delay as a single guy I don't want to buy a house right now we're going to delay buying a house and we're buying a car that is used and is way less than 50% of my take-home pay that fits the Ramsey guidelines yeah I'm locking in my vote I like that now you don't think it would be cuz I earmarked that money I put it in for a down payment well that's why you ear mark it so it makes you stop and think you are trading 2 years of buying a house for the Camaro okay that's what this ear markting does it makes you make that decision and you put both of those on the scale two years on one side of the scale Camaro on the other side of the scale but what you're describing is not an outof control purchase nope unless you're buying it to get a girl oh yeah no I just which we've established as a bad plan true but the car is a sweet car there's nothing wrong with it it's not a it's a good car I love the car but the uh uh you know and you know it's not going to make you happy it's a reasonable vehicle purchase in your situation um it is going to delay what you're saying is I'm trading two years of my purchase on my home goal for this purchase of this car what are you driving now uh it's a 2014 Honda there's nothing wrong wrong with it mechanically it's Mom car about 10 grand okay so you only really need 20 grand yeah yeah that'd be true oh that's good look I'm excited for you enjoy the car okay all right I appreciate you guys I gotta pray about it wisdom in a multitude c y one but but but don't buy it to get chicks you'll get the wrong chick you're right you get you'll get one you don't want got it shallow women are not handy shallow men are not handy and people who pick dates out based on cars are the definition of shallow look it's not going to hurt him though let's be honest Dave oh shallow co-host I'm just saying it's not oh my gosh it's not hurting his case it doesn't necessarily help his case but it's definitely not hurting his case that's all I'm saying women weigh in and weigh in in those com it's not hurting him please do not pick a date based on the car they drive the car doesn't make them man please car please God help us all I'm just saying the same you're saying if he rolls up and you know his Honda Accord wasn't bad I don't know why he thought that that was a Jesus card Jesus said they're all in one Accord right you just can't argue with this if you wanted to buy a Tesla you wouldn't have been on board though if he wanted to buy a Tesla but a Tesla is not a chick car not even close a Camaro might be I mean not a 2016 oh yes it is it is it it's a boss car yeah well then that's I then I I stand my claim he is not hurting his case he's not hurting his case but don't let that be your motivation it's a bad thing it's a really bad idea if people are impressed by what you drive instead of who you are you have the wrong crowd you're running with especially the wrong woman you're dating so just you got to get P listen that when you reach the point that you're driving a car cuz you want the car that's when you're making proper car purchases when you're trying to impress somebody a stop light you'll never meet that's when you do stupid butt stuff with cars you think everybody else is looking at you oh come on nobody gives a crap the end of day know nobody's looking really nobody and if she's looking I don't want her it's it I'm just saying that's how
