Stupid tax. and MAN i owe a lot for this car.

So first things first, my friend helped me buy my G35. Since I can't negotiate worth crap and they drove me down to Texas to pick it up. So I offered to help them put $1000 down payment on their next car because the one they were driving was about to break down.

Couple days later, friends find a 2008 Infiniti EX35 that they want. It's about 30k dollars. Which, at the time, I didn't really care because they would be the ones paying for it. I gave them the $1000 and told them to pay me back later.

Unfortunately, they didn't have enough credit history to buy the car. So I offered to co-sign and still have them pay. And that didn't work either. So in the end, I hesitated and shoulda gone with my instincts and said no but I was being nice/ retarded that day. So I said, hey. I can sign for the car.

I also have to get insurance for the car since its under my name. And thats another $125 for that car not including my G35 insurance.

Now.. on the whole note of lending money. I'm fully retarded. Cuz they moved out of their house because it was $1000 rent to something smaller like $600 rent to pay for the house AND the car. Unfortunately, same thing happened. Credit history wasn't long enough so I helped them put $600 down for their first month's down payment on the house.

The stupidity finally leaves.. and logic settles in my brain.. OH MY GOD what did I just do.

Time comes to collect money. They don't want to pay. Crap. I knew this was gonna happen. Damn rednecks (no offense to anyone here)

So... I go to my supervisor at work and tell them the story and tell the guy's supervisor who works at the same place about it. Just to cover my *** if they decide to trash the car before they give it back.

And now I have the keys to an Infiniti EX35. Fully loaded. Needing to sell it.

Paid $30k. Carmax is offering $26k. Retail is still around $29-32k

I already put a listing on craigslist. But yea. Just wanted to vent. Cuz now I'm down thirty some odd thousand dollars and because the car is in my name, they have no ties to it besides seeing if they'll have the integrity to pay me back after I let the supervisor know and either MAKE him pay, or deduct the money directly out of his pay check.
