“I was desperate. I had been working for 9 months, gathering, riding public transportation and with the distances from Miami I was desperate for a car”, pointed out the young man.
He continued his story stating that he was advised by a “friend” he knew from Caracas, who worked for a car dealer in Miami, and Alejandro in his eagerness to buy a car, put his trust in that person and that, despite how difficult the process was, everything “was working out well for him”. The ‘youtuber’ was decided and He bought a used car that cost $11,000 and put down $3,000.
The problem began with the acquisition of the credit, since it received an interest of 23%, which was an usury rate since, normally, in the country an interest of between 3% is handled up to a maximum limit of 9%.although in the case of immigrants they must add points to achieve a higher credit record.
Finally, the Venezuelan content creator ended up deceived, “I did the worst deal of my life, and a year later he found out that the vehicle he had been sold had been totaled and completely repaired to be able to sell it to him for $11,000, when it really cost 6,000. So he was left with the lesson learned that only fatigue remains from eagerness.
