Ninjoy:

Any thoughts? Additionally it seems that there are more than one possible answers here. Are you able to do multiple?

draebrewer:

what do u think is the answer

ah42632:

yeah buh yhu can only choose 2 answers

Ninjoy:

Consider yourself in this scenario. You go to college get a degree at a good company. But now you are also going to have to pay back loans which you took out for college.

Ninjoy:

Yes, there are two possible correct answers here

Ninjoy:

Also consider. Is it going to benefit you to invest money into a car in the long run?

ah42632:

yeah i think so, cuz without a car how can yhu get to the college and all of the events that are going to be held at the college

Ninjoy:

How would you plan to purchase the car?

ah42632:

okay hold on on second thought ima take it back Id rather just go to college on foot.

ah42632:

If i was to purchase a car then that would mean to have more payments due, including insurance, gas, and if anything goes wrong with the car than Id have to buy parts

Ninjoy:

Lol alright so we established we are going to college which of your answer choices supports the fact you need an education to potentially have the income to buy a car?

ah42632:

ummmmm.... low key gon keep it a buck, now im lost.

ah42632:

all ik is that im thinking of going with answers B and C

Ninjoy:

C is right because you'll have college debt if you took out loans B is wrong as we previously discussed to buy your car you need to earn money which to earn a better income an education can come handy

Ninjoy:

So try again for the 2nd answer based off of info from above

ah42632:

ok, thank you for helping me btw

ah42632:

A seems like the only one left that makes sense

Ninjoy:

Yes
