Never said any car will give you a positive ROI. That said buying gives you an asset, whereas leasing leaves you with wasted money and nothing to show for it. its a bad financial decision period.

Pay less for a lease and again have no asset after spending your money that could be a note to someone who had a good DP. Makes no financial sense and its a waste of money period.


Who said you couldn't?
But then you wouldn't be talking about leasing but buying, after the fact and it isn't a guarantee they even allow you.
What company doesnt allow you to purchase the car after the lease is over? And why wouldnt they allow it? I have done it twice already so I know 2 companies that do.

Now now now, don’t switch shyt up and move the goalpost, you was just talkin big about buying a car with 30k cash. :umad:

Besides the video linked has folks with money talking of leasing a rolls , not not damn old used car. Prolly end up spending more in maintenance than the car is worth. talkin about liquidating, that old ass car gone be beat up and worth a stack :dead:
I literally said 30k, because it was written that you could put 30k down and pay a couple of thousand a month to lease a rolls royce. I said that down would have been better spent buying a lower priced car out right.
Seems you are having trouble following the conversation and your own argument.

You talk about folks with money, not understanding that what makes financial sense for them doesn't apply to you.
Again the fact that you seem very adament about not having a "damn old used car" speaks to my point about you not moving with finance as a priority but image. You are image concious buyer.
No one is spending heavy amounts of money on maintance when you do your routine shyt, you speak like someone who never has owned a car.
A old car worth 200 is better than spending money and having nothing, which is worth nothing.

You need to open your eyes. If you are serious about saving money, you move that way, you put finances first and fukk the image.

What company doesnt allow you to purchase the car after the lease is over? And why wouldnt they allow it? I have done it twice already so I know 2 companies that do.
Depends on the dealership, there isn't a guarantee they will do it. Thats all I'm saying.
On top of that, if you purchase after the lease, you still have to go through the process of buying the car again. You are just buying a used car, what you could have done from the get go. Doesn't make much financial sense to me.

Case in point...

I drove a 1997 Pontiac Sunfire, saved up 13 grand, bought a 2009 Dodge Charger SXT, saved up more bread, sold the Charger for 9 grand and used an additional 11 grand saved and bought a 20+ grand 2014 Charger R/T.

Brehs don't understand the freedom of having a whip without a note, miles restrictions or the ability to customize your shyt.
And in that same scenario you could have leased that 2014 Charger for $1000 down and $200 a month. That extra $17k could have been invested elsewhere to actually make you money. So imagine the scenario of a Rolls Royce where we're talking about a $500,000 car.

Bruh we talkin bout rich folks in this thread. These rich folks ain’t buying no damn beat up 98 Corolla , they can afford to lease a rolls and still have good investments. Get that through your head man. We not talkin about folks who got 4 grand in their bank account.

Bottom line...never underestimate the power and flexibility of actual ownership over keeping up an appearance on a lease.

Niccas might clown because my Charger is a '14. Guess what, I can do whatever I want with it because its MINE. If I die tomorrow my Charger is an asset that can be sold, given to my daughter...whatever.

Your can't do shyt with your ride but keep paying a note on it. If you die tomorrow that shyt goes back to the dealership.

No you aren't talking about rich people, because rich people can throw away 500k and not care about needing money to invest.
Stop it breh, you need "extra funcds" to invest you don't need to be renting cars for image, be about keeping liquidity and buy a good beater and invest.

Breh u think rich people don’t care about 500k?

Cole.. u stupid:russ:

“Extra funds” Is the simple term I used to describe to you how these rich folks lease a nice whip and use the monies that would have been spent on buying to further invest. It’s the smart thing to do, as plenty of rich people have said, including in the vid in the Op.
These same rich that u claim to have 500k to throw in the trash are not riding in a good beater for the most part.

Like I said, folks are gonna listen to actual rich people who all say the same thing versus you, mr. “Go buy a 500k car in cash and own it”.

rich people don't care about 500k on a car because they have it to spend. I think you look at that as strange, but its probably because we have different levels of what we constitute as rich.

I'm stupid but you are the one trying to claim it makes financial sense to drop 30k down to lease a rolls royce because you can save money for "investments" so it makes good business sense. LOL.
Rich people who lease don't do it for extra funds, they lease because the lease is a "entertainment" budget, and not essential to them.

Breh you have Matthew Knowles a man who declared bankruptcy because he only made 127k a year but had 51k in expenses per MONTH.

Again you keep the car or use it for trade in, you are better off because you either have the car as an asset or you have money tied into the asset and can possibly trade it it for another.

Where as with a lease you have nothing after the money spent.

There is really no finaicial benefit to leasing.
Leasing is what people do who want to live or pretend to live a lifestyle they can't really afford.
this is all wrong.

You can write off that lease...no maintenance...less payments.

If you arent buying a used car...you should just get a lease.

How many months are you financing your cars for?
and how long do you keep them?

Bruh declaring bankruptcy does not mean broke.

You still need to learn the basics, little one.

I never said they did it for extra funds, it’s just that those funds are “extra” aka funds that you can pocket to invest because one chose to lease instead of spend.

Learn to fukkin read. It don’t matter if rich people don’t care about 500k on a car, that’s not the argument, the argument is if leasing and using the extra funds to invest is the smarter option

It is. Stop bringing up extra shyt that isn’t central to the debate.

Stop quoting me til you learn the basics.

That you ignored the fact that he makes 127k a year but has 51k in expenses per month, shows how little you pay attention to things that matter.
Again if you are trying to save money for your "extra" funds by leasing a rolls royce or ultra luxery vehicle, that should tell you off the bat your priorities are fukked up and you are making poor financial decisions trying to stunt.
Since you literally had a problem with me saying rich people don't care about 500k, the argument most definitely centered on our interpretations of what rich is.
You seem to have a problem actually defending the things you type. You type things and when what you type is countered you deflect and try to move on to something else and when that is responded to you repeat.
I feel for you. You remind me of those cats who got those crazy mortgages befoer the housing boom, where they were only paying interests and no principle because of crazy financing just so they could buy a house they couldn't afford.

this is all wrong.

Businesses can write off a lease, as an individual you aren't writing off a lease.
You pay no maintenance, so what, maintanance on a vehicle isn't expensive the first 10 years of modern cars, especially if you keep up your regular service.
If you aren't buying used, you should still buy over leasing, because again you still put the money spent towards an asset
It makes no sense to spend money on extended rentals.

First car I financed for 6 years, 2nd car financed for 4 years. I own both cars, first one got in 2006 and 2nd in 2017.

Leasing makes a lot of financial sense. Instead of parking $500k in a car. You spend $30k down and $3000 a month for the same car. That extra $400,000 you can use and invest elsewhere. There are plenty of articles on why leasing expensive cars is the smarter option:

It Makes More Sense to Lease a Rolls-Royce Than to Buy One
both don't make sense that's like saying it's better to get head from a tranny than to hit :dame:

dude is having a mental breakdown trying to figure this out :dead: he really thinks using the extra 400K to invest isnt something rich people do
