Honda Civic, if you are a well off maybe a bmw 3 series. Before any one hates, I had a c class growing up and I loved it. No point of being frugal if one can afford

Y buy an expensive car that they will likely not treat well. Better to give them a “beater car” thru college and if you want to gift them a nice car, do it for graduation

Agree! My first car at 16. Incredibly reliable and safe

I’d also throw a VW Jetta in there. I loved mine from 16-22 in the same car.

Nissan Sentra. Can’t go wrong with a used civic/corolla either. I had a Corolla myself

Used Honda Accord

Prius

Small Korean/Japanese SUV (Rav 4, sportage, santa fe, forester). Would recommend something with awd.

Thank you, everyone! Very helpful

Tesla Model 3.... Only so far they could go 😂

If you live in an area with winter conditions, Jeep Cherokee / grand cherokee, Subaru anything.

Or a personal loan to pay off all the CC debt and then have a smaller all in one payment. I’m intelligent and I work in finance, it’s so embarrassing. HELP.

Hey fishes, can someone tell me how the 80c bracket works, i know i can get exempt upto 1.5lakh under it, what i wanna know is does PF comes under it or not? For example if my yearly pf deduction is 20k and VPF is 10k so now will i still be able to show investment of 1.5lakh under 80c apart from PF and VPF or i'll be able to get exemption on only 1.2 lakh( 1.5lakh-30k= 1.2lakh)?

Thank you in advance!!
