Cars suck wealth more than anything besides housing. I had a Kia for 11 years which I credit due to working at home
The pressure to come into the office to look good is up as employees are all in competition to sit at their desk earlier and staying later to get those bonuses. Wah are starting to get laid off and fear is rising. Management is beaming because it means more productivity in their minds since we watch TV and nap all day at home.
So now I blew over $4500 into my car only worth $4000 to now have engine problems. Thanks to being at the office I had to buy a new car and now have a $700 car payment over 5 years. Grrrr.
Yes working at home saves for dumb expenses like cars which can keep even a six fig salary worker broke and an internal renter not home owner (average car payments are $1000 over 72 months last I looked).
