Yes, you can say the same thing about any non-essential purchase, but the comparisons only go so far. OP's DH can buy a different luxury car for $100k, which is still way, way more expensive than any car most people could ever afford to buy AND still feed a hundred people for an entire year with the leftovers. I am upper middle-class in one of the richest countries in the world and the biggest splurges in my entire life are still many orders of magnitude smaller than $200k.

Typical rich liberal nitwit.  It's okay if she does it.  But anyone else richer than her or more extravagant than her - oh go feeeeed poorrr people!  [/quote]

I am as liberal as they come, definitely not a car person (drive a mid-range Civic, and see no reason to change) and won't get anywhere that income level in this lifetime - and this post is spot on.  The sanctimony and hypocrisy in this thread is amazing, but not at all surprising.

Yep. PP who said her "splurges" in life are magnititudes smaller than $200K... how much does your house cost? Choosing to live in the DMV is a splurge in itself. You could easily move to a more affordable area of the country and free up hundreds of thousands of dollars over your lifetime, even if your income went down, to put your money where your mouth is.

Why stop there?  PP should go live for free under a highway overpass and save even more money!  That would really put her money where her mouth is and show you![/quote]

She should! I'm sure her splurges now are magnitudes larger than what the homeless can spend, so why not live with them and free up money to help them? Or, alternatively, she could spend the way she wants and STFU about how others choose to spend.[/quote]

Signed, not rich but sick of the wealthy Liberal hypocrisy

At least liberals are conscious that they should give something to charity. Republicans are like, "I got mine, you go get yours, and don't take any of mine."[/quote]
