Life has many major milestones – first grade, graduation and marriage, children, etc.
There are other important milestones that sometimes slip past with little recognition. The youngest Atkins boy recently experienced one of these – making his first major adult purchase. This also meant creating his first debt.
Gregory Michael Atkins has purchased a Dodge Ram truck and what a truck it is! Like new, looks great, low mileage, and after trading in his graduation gift, a loan he can handle. What's more, he got his dad's advice before making the big leap. Smart move.
Perhaps the most important part of this transaction is that the youngest Atkins boy seems to have learned a very important Atkins lesson: Never buy anything you can't afford to pay for.
So, with careful thought, an employee discount, and a two-year loan, he bought a great truck from Akins Ford, the dealership where he's working while finishing up his degree.
Good choice, Greg!
