I am no millionaire (at the opposite end), but I typically buy new and keep about 10 years. My Accord is on its 13th year. My next car may be my last, so I want to choose the right one.
I used to finance for 5 years and have 5 years of no car payments. I am living on a lot less money now that I am retired so I would rather not have a car payment. I have some $$$ set aside for a new car but not enough.
I went to a Halloween party last night. I saw some folks that I had not seen since I retired (a year and a half ago). The house was built in 1806 and was very nice. The guy having the party really gets into Halloween. He is a great guy. It was really nice to see everyone. I don't miss the job stress but do miss some of the people.
I went to the party as myself.
