Life is life

It’s been a while since I’ve made a post! So! HELLO! I might start deleting some posts just because I don’t know what I’ve written, hopefully it wasn’t anything embarrassing. All I know is seeing the date of the last post. It’s been more than a year since I’ve written anything and things have changed. My life has changed just a bit! More responsibilities, more than I would’ve thought I’d have a couple years ago. Things happen for a reason is something I always tell people when things don’t go their way and now that things aren’t going my way. It’s hard to tell myself that because now I want to know why things happen to me the way that they did. So! Let’s explore it! Back in 2022 I cosigned for my sister’s friend, so he can purchase a vehicle. I trusted him. He seemed like a nice guy but, after a while I saw red flags but it was too late for me to back out. Contract had been signed and everything didn’t even read the contract if I’m being honest. Fast forward to 3 weeks ago I got a call from my sister’s friend saying that he didn’t pay 4 months of car note so the vehicle got repossessed. Now, I’m 4K short and about to be more money short because I have to pay off the lot that has the car and had to pay off the missing payments. To my surprise the interest rate is 27% and the balance of the car is 27K. It’s my fault for not having read the contract on the loan and also not contacting my sister’s friend to see how he was doing with the payments. It sucks sometimes being the nice guy and thinking of others too. So, let’s see what we can all learn from this including me! Read contracts! No matter what, always read a contract before signing it. On top of that don’t trust others, especially when it comes down to your credit. It’s not easy to fix but, what are your 20’s for y’know if you don’t get fucked over. Which is great because you’re still young to bounce back and recover from it. What I’ve learned from this is people aren’t you and will never think like you. I stress out when I know I’m wasting people’s time or when I mess up, because I don’t want them to have a bad day. I don’t know what they’ve been through, so I’d rather do the best I can to make their day. I am guilty of not caring at times, but I’m human. Being tired and getting fucked by people is a tiring thing. Other people will always think about themselves no matter what, even if they know deep down that they’ll make someone’s life miserable. Not everyone is like you or me, so be careful on who you let in your life and communicate too. Always thinking of others is something we should all do, but we don’t, because some have gotten tired of doing it. Whether they’ve been hurt or used, people’s trust is hard to regain. What do I do now is what I’m asking myself right now. Should I live paycheck to paycheck for 5 years or should I leave the car in the lot. Either way my credit is fucked. Be kind to others and think of others! That’s the lesson I think had to be learned from all this. Have a goodnight/goodmorning/ or a good afternoon!
