Tips To Avoid Vehicle Theft!

Nobody likes to have their car broken into! It has happened to me and it has happened to a lot of people as well! I found an online article that gives some helpful tips to help avoid one's car being broken into.

Some of the tips are obvious like locking all of your car doors but it's surprising how many people don't do this! I know that there are people who want to make a "quick" stop into a store or something and they think that they won't be long but it doesn't take too long to steal a car - especially when you don't lock your doors.

Here is a link to the online article and hopefully it will provide you with some very valuable tips to help avoid your car being stolen!

Tips To Avoid Vehicle Theft!

"I Need A Car To Get To Work"

Now first off don't get me wrong - having a car is great! I have been through both experiences of having a car and not having a car - and having a car is the better of the two!

However with all the jobs that I have had I would say that a good 20% of them warrented me having a car. These jobs were mostly my radio jobs where the radio stations were located so far away!

The rest of the jobs that I have had I could get to on the bus using public transportation. (Now that I work from home my "commute" is even smaller).

I keep seeing people posting about how they need a car to get to work and I'm wondering if that is necessarily so. I do grant research so I know that there are some programs out there to help people get a car but in order to qualify to apply for these grant programs you have to meet certain requirements.

I also do know that there are some jobs whose location is so abnormal that having a car is a necessity.

But while having a car is a great thing do you REALLY need it to get to work? Can you use public transportation? And what about when your car breaks down - how are you going to get to work then?

AAA

AAA - Keystone!

Yes I think being a AAA member is well worth the cost if you can afford it. There have been times when my car would stop working and those were times when I was glad that I was a AAA-Keystone member! I have had my car get battery jumps, quick repairs so that I could get home and there was even one time when I was able to get gas from AAA. All in all a very good deal and well worth the price of membership!
