I've been driving a truck with an engine that knocks loudly - for nearly two years. I only drive it infrequently, but I did not run out and buy a new one when it first "started going out on me."
About a year ago, our daughter bought her first car, a fairly"beaten-up" Hyundai. She paid cash for it. A few days ago, she sold it for 83% of what she paid for it! Or, said another way, she drove it for 11+ months at an average of $13 dollars per month! And, she had money to pay cash for a newer, better car. I'm so very proud of her.
I hope these lessons in stewardship shape our kids for a lifetime.
