We are witnessing some extended family stuff involving cars and making unwise choices with money lately here, so I thought some recent mail I received was very apropos to what is going on.
I think the synchronicity of the Universe had something to do with me getting this mail at this very moment. ;-)
Sometimes I just have to laugh at stuff though.
Like the other day.
I got some junk mail.....you know, that stuff companies send you to try to get you to buy something they are selling.
Obviously whomever sold them MY name from some big database ofsuckers potential customers is actually clueless as to how futile and wasteful this attempt at selling me is!
Here's what showed up in my mailbox....in all it's full color, luxurious papery booklet goodness, enclosed in elaborate plastic packaging(which I did not photo before throwing out)........
And just in case you didn't catch the brand in that photo.....
These hunks of metal start at $41,300.
Like I would ever spent that kind of money on a car!
Not in this lifetime and not while I have my faculties about me.
Why?
Because a new car loses 20% of it's value by the end of the first year so I'd be out $8,260 after 1 year of ownership.
You can get a real nice used car for what thisrust bucket car depreciates in 1 year.
Not only that but you are looking at a car payment in the neighborhood of $900+ a month if you have to finance it.
I guess Hubs and I are on some list somewhere of people who have cash so that is why we get offers for luxury cars, country clubs, cruises, platinum level credit cards, all kinds of vacation/resort packages/clubs, jewelers, designer this and that, etc.
And do you know why we have money?
Because we don't spend it on crap like this! lol
Yes, I choose to be inspired Infiniti....inspired NOT to waste money on stuff that doesn't matter.
