According to the website SmartCredit.com, here are four things you should never borrow money for.
- A boat, or any kind of vehicle you don’t NEED. Like if you need to have a truck for work, then get a loan. But not if you just want to tool around on an ATV for fun. Stuff like that usually comes with other expenses that you don’t think about.
- A vacation you can’t afford. If you can’t afford the $5000 to take your family to Disneyland for a week, don’t do it. There are plenty of other options that are cheaper.
- A wedding. It’s becoming more and more common to take out a huge loan so you can have your dream wedding. But most people end up regretting it, because you end up starting out under a mountain of debt.
- Furniture. If you can get zero percent financing and pay it off in time, then MAYBE. But even then, you’re better off buying something cheaper, or waiting until you’ve saved up.
