Oftentimes, there is very little thought, objectivity, or logic at play when someone decides to buy a car.
This is particularly true when it is a toy car being purchased for some nostalgic reason, or to fill some type of void in one's life.
Very intelligent, smart, sane, logical, rational, conservative, pragmatic, responsible, business-like individuals often behave like complete fools when in the presence of a car that makes their dream come true.
Money is of little importance or consequence when one has the opportunity to enhance their life, and rarely is even considered if one has access to it.
I should know.
Hello!
My name is Marty, and I have a problem with cars.
I know this to be true for me as it is for countless others, as I cannot get past the first step in the above sentence.
Nor do I want to.
So talk about bad investment or any other type of foolish thing and you have lost my (our) attention immediately.
Why?
Just LOOK AT THAT CAR!
(Problem ? ) continues.
