Fear of Debt

Perfect idea to go for new ford Fiesta, focus, Ka...I totally agree with Asparagoose
((If you need to finance your new car, make sure it's a cheaper car and inexpensive. Try japanese cars or ford))

I have always feared of dept also. When I was little, our family always had money problems and very often I had to donate my savings (I wanted to, because I felt guilty if I didn't. I didn't have to do it) just to live off. I spent very little. This left me a mark and i always need to have at least some of my own money. It must be my own and not lent. I am feared of dept. When my father lost his job, my mother fed the family with minimum wage, but that wasn't enough and rent was unpaid, we were in big dept and had ourselves almost lifted to streets. My father worked very hard to solve the situation, losing his job was because the company was decreasing and his services were never needed again.

I have always had very little money, I gave some of it to my mother. But I have learned to not give away money, only to the closest ones. Sometimes I think that I am a penny-pincher cheapskate because of this. So now I am thinking of investing. I thought about a firm, but which kind, not sure. Maybe buy a nonworking firm and just hold it for a while until I have more education and skills to have it worth more investing. Or maybe fix it a little and then sell again with higher price. Anyone experienced with firms? Of course I have a list of other things I need to buy because I just need them, but maybe some day harder days will come or I suddenly need something more expensive?
