conversation: User (thecassabunny): "As the title says, I recently just lost my car. I live on a military base so public busses aren't an option. I've been looking at cheap cars on Craigslist, anything less than $5000. My only issue is that I don't have any proof of income, or anybody who can cosign a loan for me. I've been considering taking out a student loan, but are they paid straight to the school or to me? Obviously it's the last resort, but what else can I do? "
  Self: "Maybe you can commute with someone who goes to the same school and lives near your place?  "
