Back to the I Can't Afford It Awards

Well it has been years quite literally since the last time I did a I can't afford it award.

I got to be honest. I have not seen a whole lot of canadates for this award lately. At the same time theres a charity add on the classifieds I follow that have been about half of what it used to be. A clear indicator that the economy is good, but like I always say don't ever trust the economy. It can go to crap within days. If your relying on your job to pay a car payment, your in for a rude awakening.

Kind of like our first contestant for the "I Can't Afford It Award.

Meet "I have a big house and a big truck" guy. Apparently what seems to be a well to do guy is stuck in an artificial wealth Utopia.

Artificial wealth is NOT real wealth.

Artificial wealth is having things you can barely afford. Meaning your deep in debt and having no wealth to back your purchases or loans. Your job is your lifeline. You lose that you lose EVERYTHING!

I myself am not wealthy. I know that. I don't live an artificial wealthy life. Well I guess to a degree I do. But at the same time. If I lose my job my vehicles are not in danger of being repossessed. I own them!!

In my opinion until you own your house and own or have the money to own a second home or property, your not wealthy. Again artificial wealth is not real wealth.

Here's a question, if this person is asking for food assistants are you willing to put forth your hard earned money to help him?

P.s. in case you were wondering, this trucks estimated payments is between 1000-1200 a month with an insurance payment of around 150. 1350 a month? That's a mortgage payment!!

Oh and he's owned it since 2015.

That's 48,600 dollars!! Nearly the whole value of the truck!!

Oh and one last thing. Why is Kelly blue book putting this truck at less than 40k.

Seriously people! Have more respect for your hard earned dollars. Stop giving them to corporations who don't give a crap about you.
