Money saving tip #7

Car repairs: They're outrageously expensive!! I have a plan to save you tons of money on car repairs!

When I first started to drive .. many, many years ago, I can recall the repair shops charging around 35 bucks and hour. Now today, they charge 76 bucks an hour. $76.35 an hour!!! How the hell do you justify that much money per hour?? I would guess that the owner pays his mechanics not more than 20 bucks an hour, leaving a nice healthy profit of 55 dollars an hour. Now considering you have 5 mechanics at your shop, times the 8 hours they work, makes 40 hours each day. And take the 40 hours each day times the $55.00 from each mechanic fee, and you get about $2,200.00 profit ... FOR ONE DAY!!!!!!!!!!!! And assuming your open 5 days a week, times 4 weeks is a nice little nest egg of $44,000.00 per month! That's $44,000.00 per month to pay yourself (the boss), the secretary, heat, lights, land tax, and stuff. Seems to Me you should be able to SQUEAK BY at the end of the year!!!! PRICKS!!!!

Anyway .... back to saving money. I figure in another 10 years, repairs will be around $125.00/hour!!! So to save money, go get everything fixed RIGHT NOW!!! Take your car in and fix everything possible today! Even if you just bought a brand new car, take it in and have them change all the fluids, the timing belt, new transmission, brakes, headlights .... EVERYTHING!!! **WARNING** - When you take your car in for this, the mechanics will NOT want to do this for you. They may even try to talk you out of it, or that your nuts. Don't listen to them, they're just trying to pad their wallets for down the road!!

You'll probably have a couple thousand dollars in repairs, but if you did it 10 years from now, it would probably cost you twice this much!! Save money now by spending it now!! You may think the bill hurts when your done, but trust Me, you'll be thanking Me down the road!
