2nd contestant for May's "I can't afford it" award

There are those who have a free life. Someone came before them worked hard became wealthy had children and grandchildren and because some were born into there family they were awarded endless opportunities including the ability to pick and chose when or if they are going to work. "Born with silver spoon" or "funemployed" are two terms I have heard to describe these people. Then there are those who have some type of financial assistance. Likely their parents became successful helped them through college paid for their wedding helped them move or even in some cases bought them a car or even a house giving them such an advantage over their neighbors and friends. This(sometimes unknowingly)  can be a dangerous situation . The nest egg could dwindle faster than they anticipated  The benificeraries of all of this help could develop self entitlement and not good work ethics  that  plus the family growing, more siblings in laws and grandkids could unexpectedly cause the well to run dry. Although I cannot pinpoint an exact situation to this story probability tells me that it could and does happen.

Welcome my next contestant of the CPA's  "I can't afford it award" I told you in a earlier post I have at least found 10 cars for sell by owner that are 2015's. Some of these sellers have barely put a few thousand miles on them then realized they couldn't afford it. Whether it was due to "loss of income" or my favorite "job situation changed" which in this case makes you scratch your head. Why would they purchase a 50k vehicle when your are at a risk of losing income. What's more confusing is that they leased it. A big waste of money especially since they need to sell or are they being forced to sell.

I'm  taking a guess that this person is part of the second group of people (above) who have or had some type of supplimental help. Weather it was income or gifts of cars or something of value they eventually relied too heavily on their historic intuition and the "well" is starting to dry up. I do wonder if part of the problem is receiving suplimental support. It takes more than one ingredient to make a cookie.

 Think it through. I've said this many times enjoy that power of knowing you could go buy a brand new truck. Keep it. Save save save. Don't give in. There are so many out there who want that power taken away from you. You could easily go from having that power to begging for just enough power to get a ride to work.

Enjoy your weekend fellow person who accidentally stumbled upon my blog.
