Stop in for a cup of coffee
Well, I guess not really. She already owned her half of the lot that we owned jointly. I was paying the Viet Bank every month for my share. But the interest rates at VN banks are extremely high. 13.5% in this case. So I was just plugging away at it, until I decided if I wanted to take cheaper American money from here to pay it off. In any case , she just HAD to have a Benz. It's a Status thing in VN. Its her first car at age 35, soooo. Anyhow, she sold the land for twice what we paid for it, and paid the amount I owed back to the VN bank. Good deal for me, because she has been bugging me about buying a car for months now. So now, I have no note to pay at the VN bank anymore, and she has her Benz . And she profits another 25K in cash, to buy and sell more land with. Win Win for me. She got her Benz and I got no more payments. I just didn't like the secretive way she went about the whole thing. It WON'T happen again......
