Didn't buy my car thinking it would not depreciate. I think it has retained its value very well over the 4+ years I have had it. Can't say that much for the other cars I own.

Maybe I should have bought a ratted out '77 that hopefully can only go up in value. Wait a minute, I have a business. It is to make money to enjoy MY LIFE with my family. What is it that ET says? "When your dead you're dead for a long time."? I wonder what that dinner I bought last night is worth now that it's done floating in the toilet?

That is what I am going to count on if and when I sell. Who cares, drive it and have fun.
