A waste to you, money well spent to us. If we had trouble saving/paying the bills, you’d probably have a point. |
In what regards? |
+1 Just showing off (not smartly) at your HHI |
They start at $70k. That's almost 4 months salary at your HHI, assuming you bought the cheapest model (which seems unlikely). That's just a bad financial move. |

Tesla Model S. ~100k. Bought with cash. HHI 450k. NW >4x that.
IDGAF if meets “rules” - I work hard, spend an hour or more on daily commute and I wanted it. You only live once, puts a smile on my face everyday and much cheaper than an affair. No regrets - live a little people! |
NP. Does DCUM ever just spend money for fun? Just because it makes you happy? Or because you want to? Not every penny has to be "smart" or an "investment". |
I am the cayenne PP. This is exactly it. It was my husbands dream car (he’s a car guy). We bought it used. It makes him very very happy. That counts for a lot for us. |
Not every decision we make is based on saving more money. After my dad passed away I realized life really is too short. The car is awesome. So much fun to drive. That is worth more than another 60K in the bank for us. Like I said, if we couldn’t pay our bills, or had nothing saved for retirement/kids college, you’d have a point. |
Believe it or not (I know you won’t), my husband couldn’t care less what anyone thinks of him or his car. It just makes him really happy to drive it. |
| I believe it. Some people are just into cars while other are in to clothes, vacations, knitting, sports tickets. Why is that so hard for some to understand? I personally don't care about cars and have been driving a very old car. but I know it makes some people really happy to drive and have a nice car. |

| Macan S and a 911. $400k hhi $20m net worth. Leased through my business. |
| We have many independent "govt contractors", and these people can get tax writeoffs for a lot of stuff as "business expenses". It includes huge SUVs and vans, and many home improvements. You need a mode of transportation and a space to do business, amiright? Huge SUVs and minivans...usually Mercedes or BMW. |

Bought BMW, $325 HHI, $3M NW
DH drives a toyota |
He’s immature because his car makes him happy? That’s an interesting perspective. |
