My idiocy was getting a lease on a new Altima when I didn't have a real job. I had a contracting gig set up, but was underutilized, i.e. no work. It was really tough, but I bit the bullet and asked my folks to help me buyout the lease. I had too many miles on the car and outright purchasing it was a better deal than ponying up a ton of cash at lease-end. (Spoiled princess, I know.) The good thing is that I learned my automotive lesson and I'm going to keep this thing till the wheels fall off, then get new ones and wait till the axle drops off and the engine dies completely because the oil seals fail. After that, I will drop in a refurbished engine and keep going.... Yikes. My idiocy was getting a lease on a new Altima when I didn’t have a real job.

They get you where you need to go but they're money pits. Between the purchase price, repairs, maintenance, insurance, gasoline, and speeding tickets it's no wonder we don't have any money left over for saving. I hate buying cars!
