A new car can also be a poor match and it is a more costly mistake in terms of both time and money. Pay, pay, pay. Measure many times and cut only once.
Stuff doesn't make you who you are.
Drive cheaper cars, don't eat out and you can retire about ten years younger.
Drive less, lots less. Understand what a consumer is and try to not be one.

Some very good points here to especially get free of the system early.
I have almost always gotten a milage return from either my employer or situation. Even now I think it is about .43 per kilometer for some of my driving. Not sure of the exact current amount as my wife files the expenses. That's about .60 cents a mile still.
I remember back when it was .10 cents per mile well before metric was introduced in Canada. There is always more than one way to skin a cat. Needless to say I like animals and this is just an old expression seldom heard anymore.
