Smart Person would Put $ 30,000.00 in CD's Then Barrow against it! Use the other $20,000.00 to Make sure the payments are made on time over 3 years & when your done you affectively Paid yourself,Cause you still have the 30k & what ever you Bought, Plus well earned Credit & Low Interest rates! Plus the Money in the CD earn's you bac Interest!
My wife did this with her Purchase of Her SS/NA, The Nice thing is there is No Lien on her Title, She own's it! The Bank Lien's the 30k!
