You only live once, I say enjoy your money. Just because a person drives a nice car or has a nice home doesn't make him a fool as long as they are still saving some money and staying out of debt

But I bet only 15-20% of people who have a nice car or home ARE saving money.
Only 2-3% of people make $200k a year or more. But if look at the cars around here, you'd wonder.. An incredible amount of $80k+ cars around.
How much money do you need to own a Ferrari? $300k buys one... So if you have $350k, can you afford one? Obviously no. You COULD buy one, but you'd be obviously retarded. Even with a million dollars, you'd be pretty stupid.
But tell a kid with a pretty good job he should wait to buy that new $90k Audi (with probably $5,000 in the bank) and you're a "hater".
People just don't understand money.
