Mrs. Kirk With Some Ideas About Women and Work

[Fort Fun Indiana]

She may be an agent of Satan. Time will tell. She was thrust into the "gate" from her rightful place as a Proverbs 31 wife.

Well that is Grade A nuttery.

It's a 2003 Grand Marquis, low mileage, looks and run great.

Its ok I have a shitty car. I don't do debt. People with $40k cars are bat shit crazy.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Odds are that someone with three kids, a mortgage, retirement account, and is saving for kid's college makes a lot more than $60K

Since the median household income is about $100,000, you might want to check your math and fire your research team.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

I'll call it what it is, thx FF....~S~

Which doesn't change the point you are avoiding.

They still need two wages to get there.

For the most part, yep.

 

[Woodznutz]

So AGAIN, no one can cite an example.

What specifically are you looking for?

 

[Woodznutz]

Well that is Grade A nuttery.

Unless you know what I'm talking about.

$40K cars are fine if one can afford it. I can afford much more but I'd rather spend my money elsewhere. But mainly I love this vehicle, and it's my third Grand Marquis. I'll buy them as long as they're available. I've driven them for the last 27 years.

And a person driving a $40k, newer car can often spend less per month than someone driving a shitty, $15K car.

If I keep my $40k car for 6+ years, I will probably spend less than you do, over that time.

Only if it's fully paid for and the $15,000 isn't.

?

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

Well first, that makes no sense. The cost is still the cost, whether you pay it all at once or not.

Also, credit is a factor. And the numbers show those with smaller auto loans have worse credit.

I've had this one for 3 1/2 years and have spent less than $1000 on repairs. It only had 111,000 miles on it when I bought it, hardly broken in and well cared for. I've only put 14,000 miles on it myself.

I did put new tires on it and a new battery. The tires weren't worn out but they were old and showed signs of drying and cracking.

I doubt if you could match my low insurance costs.

Personal anecdotes are neither compelling nor useful. This is not the norm.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

I wonder what new car Erika Kirk drives?

Give until it hurts. Mommy needs a new Range Rover.

You cited operating cost, not total cost. If total cost is figured the $40K vehicle will cost a lot more, using mile per mile comparison.

 

[Fort Fun Indiana]

I did not. Your brain inserted that.

That's the only factual evidence I have.

That helps my case, not yours.
