life is about quality not quantity.

Secondly, if you do the math, there is a line at about the 13-18 year mark where owning property outweighs renting for the same value. If you're young and don't plan on renting for more than half of that time then it makes FAR FAR FAR more financial sense not to tie your life up in repayments on property.

As far as cars go, most people with `status` cars have some business interest and there would be putting it through their business. Done properly, a car lease will end up costing you *LESS* than if you were to buy it outright (10-20% less after your negotiated price).

Times change. Keep up oldies!
