I see people spending $300-$500 a month on wireless phone service, $200+ on lawn care, $2000+ on purses, $10K+ on watches, $1000 a month on daycare per child!

I've seen 2 dead cousins died millionaires and none of them have managed to take any money with them. If everyone is following strict financial guideline, most people should be driving a 10 year old Camry and who would want that?

The flaw in your logic is assuming it’s a “this v. That” issue. It’s not! It’s an issue that knows no boundaries. Every industry from automotive, to cell phone companies, to lawn care companies, to textile companies have a predatory element to it that has deluded us all and we are ok with because....uh...life is short and we’re gonna die. Give me a break. It’s not about money per se, it’s about freedom. We are all ok with being prisoners of this exploitative social construct. Tell me how an M6 can sell for $160k new but get “damaged” during shipment and only be worth $2500 in scrap metal? Refer to the Canada BMW Lot thread. You have guys trading in M4s that are only 18 months old because they don’t have the latest updates headlights. That’s a sickness. I’m guilty of it. You are too.
