When I was in my late teens and 20s I wanted a new car so bad and was envious because other guys drove new cars. I did not have the money to buy a new one and my dad was not about to buy me one. So I drove older cars....and my dad did, also.
I learned thru life how to save money, be happy with used cars, to not spend much on clothes, don't gamble, don't smoke and only have a Leinenkugel when I was really thirsty! And I worked hard every day trying to put something away for the future.
Today, at 81 yrs old, my house is paid for, I have plenty stashed away, and I drive new cars and spend a lot of money on old tractors because I have the money to do that. I know I will never get my money back from used cars and pretty tractors. But they are mine, all paid for, and are now the toys I could not buy many years ago.
And....this might be "cruel"...I get a kick out of driving all this stuff when I go to see old friends who had all those new cars many years ago. Guess what they are driving today!
