A Monday Thread...in honor of National Simplicity Day

I don’t consider myself an expert on alcohol or lawn bowling.

Not going to entertain your question, as you’ll proclaim some holier than thou response about how you wouldn’t have made the decision I did or you’ll call me a liar when I tell you the specific facts of what I paid. Like, when you were my age you were driving and paying for an HHR, bro. Let’s pump the brakes on thinking you’re fucking Mario Andretti, Elon Musk and Warren Buffets lovechild.

I've admitted I made mistakes. Not going to pretend I haven't

Something you seem unable to do.

I'd also add @Flavortown Tebow , you like me changed course on cars

Like you, I assesed my situation at time. I wanted a cheap car with low mileage to tote my dog. In hindsight, I would've gone different route

Huge difference though, I've never suggested buying a shitty HHR was a wise a decision. I've fully admitted I fucked up because at time my resources were limited and I got what I felt was a deal

Only me? Multiple people in this thread think leasing car is dumb. Plenty of people know what's up.

All sorts of financial advisor will give similar advice, many are even more conservative than I am.


But you be you.

Why are leases bad? I lease because I suck at maintenance and I like having a new car every three years but I need to get smarter about my finances so gimme the scoop.

That’s awesome bro.

Point to where I called my car leases/purchases “wise decisions”. I’ve posted that leasing isn’t as dumb as you think it is(which is funny because you agree when redseat says it).

Ive also posted that I’m pretty satisfied with how my car transactions went down.

Then you always pop in with “hrrrrr drrrr the dealership got you.” Or “drrrrrr but I’m sure you put down a big deposit” or “drrrrrr okay you’re lying” and finally “hrrrrrr charger drrrrrr” when you’re fully defeated. Like I said, it’s just really amusing because you willingly bought, paid for and drove a fucking HHR when you were my age. An HHR. Chevy gave that piece of shit what, 3 years before shooting its wannabe PT Cruiser ass out back. But hrrrr drrr Charger, amirite?

I never said you were lying, and no surprise you're changing what the discussion was about.


Again, you be you

If you want new car every 3 years lease away, you'll just have a perpetual payment.

I think I am going to convince my mom to lease for her next car.

@Fish also ran with business with his dad and mn kid named sully. From what I know he didn't make good decisions with business partners

I'm just too nice of a guy.
