New car is home. I put literally nothing down and got $391 a month for 36 months. It’s another lease. It’s $65 a month cheaper than a 60 month purchase. In 3 years I can once again walk away or buy it for $12K. I think it will be worth a little less. We will [...]
New ride purchase/lease is almost done. Picking it up Monday. Decided on a Black Mazda5 Grand Touring WITHOUT Navigation. Spending the $2K on Nav wasn’t justifiable for an inferior navigation unit to what I have now. I can install my own with more features (like a backup camera) for under $900. I am going to [...]

This blog follows my day to day life at a major United States regional airline. I typically post 10-20 blogs a month. Prior to flying I spent 6 years in the IT world fixing computers and diagnosing/troubleshooting software.

This has also been the most rewarding time of my life. I hope you enjoy my blogs.
