We had a pretty January-to end of June 2015. That was until my mom's van broke down. It wasn't something cheap. It was $1600-1800 to fixed. It was the transmission. We didn't have that much money. Although still worked pretty good if that got fixed.
We ended up going multiple weeks without a car. Had to end up buying a new car. One really couldn't afford, but we had to have something to drive. It was very boring time. Also we had to figure out to pay for it. My mom's sister helped us with the down payment. For credit we used my credit score. The household income as a whole. It makes use strap for money real, but we had no other choice.
Me and my mom are splitting the payment. It takes half my check almost every month. I don't even know how we are going to do in 2016. My Aunt helped us with that to for a few months, but she really didn't want to. Starting January we have to figure it out. I've cut out a lot of things already. Most of what I pay for now I can't cut out. I don't know what we are going to do.
