I’ve got a 2020 GLC 300. Lease is up in August. I love that car. And will likely get another. A much better car than the X3 I had before. But I’m thinking about a more sporty Mercedes now that I am in Florida more than Massachusetts these days.

DS1–I certainly like the CLC 300 over the X3, but, full disclosure, the X3 was a diesel.

I don5 know much about the c300, but I'm in a 2024 Audi A5 S-Line Prestige. Man is it fantastic.

GLC has reliability concerns. The ONLY German make I'd recommend, even loosely, is Porsche. I'd buy Japanese over German anyday

My best friend from college did that when the Porsche 911 Targa was going for $100k over asking price during the pandemic. He got a Lexus convertible. Really nice car.

$530k HHI, $250k cash on hand, $1.2M investments/retirement. Plan to buy $800-900k house as our first home, but thinking of the best approach given rates today. My thinking is that we (i) put $200k+ down and get a 5/1 ARM. (ii) put everything we save moving forward toward paying down the principal (after maximizing retirement accounts). Should be able to do $100k per year. (iii) If rates go down below 4.5ish % for 15 year fixed, refinance and stop aggressive payment. Thoughts on this approach?

I’m 25 and have found a duplex I’m considering purchasing as a rental property. Planning on renting both units and have the cash to make the down payment without an issue. My cash flow analysis has a payback period of 3 years for my down payment and a 13 year payback period for the whole investment. I think financially it makes sense. My question is, is it realistic for a 25 year old young professional to handle dealing with all the extra curricular’s that come with owning a rental property ?
