My friend lives in a cold east cold city where he recently moved for work. The other day while we were talking about his love life, poor finances, he tells me he is still making payments on a new car he financed that is still in another state 3000 miles away. He is keeping it so he can drive it when he goes for a visit, 2-3 times a year. Not to mention paying for parking, insurance, whatever. He couldn't understand why I was so upset.
