Yes I accept taking 0% is better than not taking it, but it's not better than
avoiding the purchase in the first place. Nobody needs a $25,000 car.

It is not about the need,but the wanting.

Look at the people that collect things. Remindes me of the time I was
at an older friends house. His wife was showing my wife an old (less
than 100 years old ) plate like people used to eat off, a very common
item. She mentioned that the going value of them on the collector
market was around $ 300. That plate is only for looking at now, not to
use. My friend said that was the kind of plate he ate off of while
growing up and his parents threw out most of a set of them to get better
plates that all matched.

Yesterdays junk is now collectable.

He sort of said how dumb it was to pay $ 300 for a plate as he put
himslef through college to get a job where he could get away from all
that old junk and now his wife is buying it back way above what it cost
70 years before.

Look at the paintings from the old artists. People with big money pay
over a million bucks for one of them mainly just to say they have one.

Lots of the people in the US like to drive nice looking cars just to
show off. I would think some other countries are the same way.

I can get nice looking things cheaper. I often find the most expensive paintings aren't to my liking anyway. Looking around my room I have a couple of oil paintings done by my grandmother, a pencil drawing done by a local art student who was selling them door to door to make some cash, a 3D scene I got cheap on Ebay (those ones where you can move around it and look to the side of things), and a few things I just printed off photos I found on the internet.
