if i earn 20 million a month also i wont buy a 300k car.

my brains will immediately go ka ching, forcing me to sell said car immediately (maybe get RM260K back),invest in a trust fund, generating returns of RM30K per year, and buy a Myvi by taking the longest bank loan (hopefully my car cost is RM600 per month)

so the RM30K returns per year, i invest it in another trust fund, netting me RM6K per year, enough to cover my car cost

Hence, instead of losing 300k on a car, i use the RETURNS OF THE RETURNS of the price, to buy a myvi.

if you're earning at those levels.
having a depreciating asset around 400K won't kill you.. u deserve that comfort for the boss you are.

earning 20mil, driving myvi or kapchai is just slaving yourself to money

not really.

notice how out of the 300k, only the returns of the 30k is used to buy a car.
in fact, the 260k are all making more money to make more money for me.

all my earnings are making more money to make more money for me.

in short, by not buying a car, you are less a slave of your own money

because buying a car means you have to slave to pay for the debt, pay for maintainence, and work more.

if you extrapolate .. then all non-core assets like dining, own house, clothes etc should be kept minimal because well dining and dressing is a waste of money which could be productively used, own house - bungalows cannot accurately capture capital gains and yield as well as commercial property.

so drive kapchai, stay in shoplot, wear basics, eat good basic food . lel humans are creatures of comfort bro. 300k when you're rich represents a <2% expense ratio. kalau 2% expense pun nak save.. well i dont know whether you're living life or not.
