• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

Financal advice for the day ... Buying vs Renting ...

Snuffy

Happiness Consultant
Since it’s always “about money”, this is your financial lesson for the day ...

Purchasing

The math on the Paul McCartney-Heather Mills divorce is as follows:

After 5 years of marriage, he paid her $49 million.
Assuming he "got lucky" every night during their 5 year relationship it ended up costing him $26,849 per occasion.

Renting

On the other hand, New York Governor Elliot Spitzer's "relationship" with Madam Kristen, an absolute stunner charges $4,000 per night.

Had Paul McCartney "employed" Kristen for 5 years, he would have paid $7.3 million in total, for "getting lucky" every night for 5 years: a $41.7 million savings.

Value-added benefits are:
? a 22 year old
? no begging
? no coaxing
? never a headache
? happily agrees to all requests
? no complaining
? no honey-do lists
? has great leg(s)!!
? Best of all, she leaves, and comes back when asked.

All this at 1/7th the cost and no legal fees.

Sometimes RENTING just makes more sense
 
You know what they say about the three "F's"...if it fly's, floats, or fornicates, it's always cheaper to rent.
