If you need a job to save money to buy a car but you need a car to get and keep a job, then how does a car loan not make sense?

There are functioning cars for sale under $600 USD. It may go kaput in 1-2 years, but it still runs. "I need a brand new car to go to work" is such a pathetic rationalization. The reality is, you want to live beyond your means. No beat-up junk box $600 car for you, no, you deserve much more than that, you're an ENTERPRISE SOFTWARE DEVELOPER after all.

Could you be any more wrong, >>8?

Apparently you still don't get it. Your little new Honda will, in maybe 5 years or less, be worth 1/3 of its original value. It depends on your bank's lending terms, but there's a high chance it will be worth less than the amount you owe the bank for it. But hey, the future doesn't matter, gotta have that instant gratification of a new car without the ability to buy it, r-right?
