Hello friends and thanks for joining me this week.

My name is Laura Adams and I'm a personal finance and small business expert and author

who's been hosting the Money Girl podcast since 2008.

My mission is to help you get the knowledge and motivation to prioritize your finances,

build wealth, and have more security and less stress.

I create every show to make sure you come away with some practical advice and tips that

will help you make better money decisions and take your financial life to the next level.

If you are thinking about buying or leasing your first car or even your tenth car, you

may not know exactly where to start or how to get the best deal.

So I hope you'll stick with me if you're interested in learning more about ways to wisely

buy or lease a car.

While you might think that you should just head straight for the dealership, that is

typically not the best move.

So in this podcast we're going to cover 10 things that first time car owners need to know

about the pros and cons of buying versus leasing how to get the best deal possible and

ways to pay for your new ride.

Be sure to subscribe to the show and participate by sending me your money questions or comments.

You can leave a message 24-7 on our voicemail line at 302-3640-308.

You can email me using my contact page at LaraDatoms.com or connect with me on Instagram at LaraDatoms.

And if you want to read a companion blog post for this or any show, they're always published

Today's episode is number 698 called 10 Things First Time Car Buyers Should Know.
