She deserves a new car, but geez, the ones she’s wanting are in the $70-80k neighborhood. I just can’t bring myself to spend that kind of dough but I’d really like to have sex again, so what’s a guy to do? OT wisdom, save me here!
LET’S GO BRANDON!!!

Buy her the car, life is short-
If you live long enough, you will remember when new cars “used to only cost” $70-$80 K-

What has happed to you does not define who you are-
HOW you react to what happens to you DOES!

Just gotta roll with it. We ordered my wife a new Mustang….i think I was told $70k. Put a deposit of $1000….so at least I don’t owe it all.  If and when it ever gets built. It is what it is. I guess.

Maybe show her how much insurance is for a $70k car Price of the car doesn’t dictate the price of insurance.

Depending on what you are worth in divorce court, a new wife might be cheaper. Probably more fun too.

For that price there better be some special sex involved and not just one time?

My 2005 cost $1000 a year for full coverage. My friend paid over $70k for a Bronco, insurance is over $3000 a year
