[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I do not think that driving expensive cars is part of living a good life. I think having millions in the bank so I can tell my job to shove it any day I want is living a good life.[/quote]

This. I see money = freedom and more choices.  At this stage in my life those choices/priority have to do with my career as well as what non-material things (school, summer camps, activities, college savings) I am able to provide to my kids.  When I have provided what I want for my kids, and job wise am working because I want to and not to cover basic things like food and shelter then I can see a 40K plus car as a why not and type of reward.

The other thing is I am rough on cars and I see people rear-ended/fender benders all the time in this area.  My expensive car litmus test is if someone hits me I am more concerned that everyone is okay and not upset some idiot hit my 40-60K car.  Until I can have the it's just money attitude about the car, I don't want to drive an expensive car.[/quote]
