$700 leftover after all of the above, is not too bad. Basically, if you're including food, fun, etc., into your budget and you're left w/ that much to piss away at your discretion, you're doing ok.

I say do it... and have a blast. Be sure to post pics when you get it too :-)


I did not want this to be some kind of discussion about being too young or having rich parents or anything like that.

Either way, BMW or not, I will be making car payments because I will not have a car anymore.

I can afford $500-$600 max in car payments. I did account for taxation, food, shelter, fun, roth IRA, all that junk. It's still a little tight as I have about $700 left over each month.

If you're young and you have a bimmer, good work. If you're older and you worked hard to get yours, good work as well.

And I am hoping that my earning potential will increase over the years, BUT I am not counting on that because I want to be conservative with my budget planning.
