Try being a mortgage banker.  Or, an "investment counselor".  Or a "insurance advisor".  At least three jobs, where you work 40-50 hours per week without a pay check.  Sorry G.V.  No sympathy here.

Rover "Wench",   I was on your side on a previous post, but your (not 'you are' or you're) whining is getting a bit thin.  (PMS time or are you killing time on the showroom floor during the holidays today writing these rants?)    Since you are (not - your) selling an upscale vehicle, with expensive add-ons (such a...more

I am not a car dealer, fan of car dealers or the automotive industry in general.  I ...more

Most of this article is common sense.  However, if you are anticipating "top dollar" from a car dealer on your trade-in, you are in for a big surprise.  A private buyer may pay you more (not much, but more) if the vehicle is in pristine condition.  And by that I mean, minimal dents, dings, scratches, etc. based on mile...more
