It should, you are just not maintaining it 4 oil changes at $50 each = $200 Each year you should do one other service item, This year I had brake fluid flushed at $325 (I'm up to $525) next year is a transmission fluid and filter at $600. Last year I had the AC serviced to the tune of $400 and saved me from having an expensive Compressor failure later on. 2 years from now is time for a tuneup, etc....

And that is my honda civic. Most cars have about $600 in basic maintenance costs. Some need it more like the GM garbage that started to fall apart after 5 years.

You are confusing Rich with "ultra rich"

If you are one of the snobbish rich that say you are not rich but you have a nanny for your kids.... Oh sorry, an Au Pair, Nanny sounds so pompish... Then you are rich.

The fact that your income each year can put 10 families into homes and feed them IN THE USA is another good example of you are actually rich.

Yes, $25K a year is enough to put a small very poor family in a crackhouse apartment and feed them.

Unless US citizens are deemed to be enemy combatants, then you can murder all of them you want. No military man went to trial and was executed for the murders in kent state.

If you think the US military will not mow down US citizens on orders, then you are insane. Go and ask off duty military men what their oath means. none of them will say they frag their superior officer before shooting an american citizen.
