An opinion. What annoys me is saying it’s a waste; maybe that’s a fact for you. It isn’t a fact whatsoever for us. To randomly generalize without having any single clue who you are addressing is amazing. In the end people on this forum are going to do what they want to do. I do not know if you have children. But this is a very valid point. You spend both your time and a lot of money in today’s world making the best for them. It changed my world. I also wanted to move up, not just settle for anything. But it’s extremely rewarding and it’s not just about money. It’s quality of life. Because of family I really excelled at work. Made a very high income. We have a lot of fun in our family. We like working on our cars. Sometimes though you don’t. The nice option is it’s your choice to do for fun, not financial. You may change your mind about a better home or cars yourself. Maybe not. In the end every single person has a vehicle that they can strive for. That's why they make so many amazing ones. I could buy an Accord and keep it for 10-15 years. And then reflect sitting in a wheelchair looking out a window. Same with trips and seeing great places in the world.

As long as you keep replying, they are going to keep commenting. It's their money not yours. Let them waste it on paying cash for new cars if it makes them feel good. Personally reading the comments, it looks to me that they are more or less gloating about their situations rather than giving helpful advice.
