Hey,
for those of you that had no money going into med school (you know, like thousands saved up from that part-time job you had or something) and were living off the grace of your parents, how do you pay for things like a car payment or car insurance on the meagerness that is the med student budget, especially since they can't include that in your loan amount? is there a way to squeeze out a $200/mo payment for insurance/car/parking costs, or are you just screwed? i'm trying to figure out if i'm going to have to decide between car money and beer/life money.... if so, i'm leaning towards the beer/life...
any advice from current med students would be appreciated.
