[quote=Anonymous]OP Fellow nanny here again. I cannot believe how similar we are. I, too, unfortunately have a $330/month car payment. I bought a Honda in 2010 on a 5 year loan. I currently owe more than it's worth, or I would get rid of it in a heartbeat. I am so mad at myself for making the decision to get it. I could afford it then, and I can afford it now, but I kick myself for not just getting something cheaper. Anyways, I am also very close to you. I live and work in Boston. Would you be a live-in nanny again? I never had any desire to do so, but if I was single I would do it now. But, don't screw yourself. There's jobs out there (live-in ones) that will treat you with respect and also pay you a very good salary. I think your plan of action should be to find another live-in nanny position in the city, where pay is higher and where you won't need a car. You can then look into getting rid of your car. I know people are harping on the car issue, but I understand not wanting to give it up. However, if you're in a better place living-wise and financially, it would be very feasible and beneficial to ditch the car. I don't know much about Providence, but if I were you I would look into some nanny positions in Boston. Email me offline for more info - Boston543210 @ yahoo (I just created that email so it's not a personal one).[/quote]
