And I don't feel compelled to tell you about them either. God, I swear. People on the internet.

Yeah, this particular one. But I just don't make enough money. It would take me years to save up $20k.

Don't tell me who's land it is.

And I never disputed that. I was just talking about the annual itself. If something isn't right, I'll either have it fixed, or the plane will stay grounded until I can. But I think it's already been established that I'm not getting the plane.

Umm.....don't "lol" at me. I'm not speculating. It's a fact. Did you not see the "I know a guy" part? My original instructor does my dad's annuals for free because we let him hunt on our land for free. I could probably get the annuals done for free actually, but I decided I'd probably compensate...

Nah man, I'm pretty damn lazy, and pretty damn stupid too. Not putting myself down, but I can see that I have a pretty defective brain. I make the same stupid mistakes over and over again. Not just on big the things, but the little things too. I never learn from them. I also have very little...

I'm not taking any of this the wrong way.

Seeing that I'm in my 20s and never had a girlfriend, my prospects of ever getting married seem extraordinarily low, so we can throw that one away. If anything, my situation can only improve from here. Once I finish school I should have a job paying around $60-$70k.

The costs would be more like this: Finance payment: $195/mo (roughly) Insurance: $60/mo Fuel: $200/mo Hangar: $85/mo (community hangar at local airport) Annual: $250/yr (guy I know) Total Monthly: $560/month About $70/hour And I plan to keep the plane for a long time. I like 150s. I'm kind of...

Not even close. More like 5.

If my lack of credit and income issues prevent me from getting financed through AOPA, how will SOFI, Lightspeed, or Local Credit Union be any different?

Apparently they don't get reported on mine. I pay car insurance and various other bills and subscriptions. Still no credit. Just checked.

Lessons learned: 1) Report my tips. 2) Establish credit. 3) Save money and buy it outright. 4) Don't raise this topic on the internet.

Why do I feel some of you are on the phone with the IRS right now?

Very true. I'm not a nefarious person. I was just doing what everyone else does. I don't want to cheat the system. You live and learn I guess.

Can a mod just delete this thread please?

Noted. Everyone where I work does it. I started this job by reporting everything. Then everyone was like "why do you do that?" Even my mom said that. I was like okay okay, I stop reporting everything.

Oh that would be so cool! Thank you! Just PM me.

You're probably right.

Got any recommendations for brokers/lenders I should look into?
