[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So I was the $300,000 broke person.  To respond, poster that said costs went up as kids got older and in private school hit the nail on the head.  There is five of us, including three teenagers.  Second, we buy salads form Chopt and other similar places for us several times a week.  Each time is $50 per order for five people so it can be healthy.  SUVs are leased.  Give up after warranty get new ones.  No maintenance costs or minimal.  [/quote]

If you paid off those vehicles instead of leasing them, you would be saving 12k a year for repairs on those vehicles.  They probably wouldn't need anywhere near that amount of maintenance expenses unless they were 20 years old or you are going to the overpriced dealer paying $120 an hour.

If they're leased because you can business expense them, then there is some value in that, but if thats not the case you are shooting yourself in the foot.[/quote]

Again, why do you eat out so much every single week?

Yeah, and $2500 a month buys a lot of Chopt salads.  I don't think that's where most of the restaurant budget is going.[/quote]
