My buddy was just bragging to me how he just bought a brand new Sequoia with all the bells and whistles and only had to do was take out the equity on his home and he paid cash for the whole thing… Somehow I couldn’t get him to understand how fucking stupid it was to take the equity out of his home to buy a fucking fancy car.
“All I had do to was take money out of the thing that appreciates and put it into the thing that immediately depreciates 20% after I drive it off the lot!”
Holy shit, what a dumb way to spend the equity from your home. My wife and I have a HELOC and it all goes back into the house in the form of improvements.

My accountant does that because home mortgage interest is tax deductible and car interest is not. But he can afford his luxury car.
Holy shit, that’s so stupid lmao.

I’m sorry for your loss.
Reduce value in an asset that increases to buy an asset that decreases in value… brilliant!
You do understand that mortgage interest rates are often half that of a car loan, right?
Not right now they aren’t…
