Ugh! There is nothing like them to set you back on your financial goals. Thankfully we have an emergency fund for such things, but seriously?! Could've gone a few more months without having to use it already, especially on a car. Seems that around here that's what the emergency fund usually goes to--ugh! :-/
**These such moments are apparently one of the biggest set backs on people getting out of debt. They use their credit cards to bail them out of the pinch and it perpetuates the problem, according to Dave Ramsey, that is! ;) Let our car troubles serve as a nudge to get an emergency fund in place for your family! D.R. recommends having $1,000 set aside for such occasions as this...
I would agree with D.R. because our emergency fund always go towards a car or it's repairs also! Good luck!
