Right now, my car is getting old so i'm in the process of saving for it. However, i cant quite yet afford to max my Roths (in addition to my TSP(401k)).
Would i be better off saving money in a taxable mutual fund so that i can eventually buy the car I want with cash and not have to finance, or use that money to finish off my IRA's but be forced to finance my next car when it does give out?
I'm just afraid by the time she does give out, interest rates will be sky high again. My other concern is I dont want to just be so typical and have to borrow to buy a car.
Thoughts?
