Paying a thousand or two in interest over 5 years is nothing if you're smartly investing your money (not leaving your money in a .05% savings acct) I'm talking about buying a new/newer car, not older cars for a few thousand

Wouldn't that be the same concept minus what you're paying the finance company in interest?

Why does everyone think it is so easy to invest into something and make money on it? If it were so easy, everyone would be doing it. I am not singling you out CRC but I see this comments far too often like we can just hand our cash to some guy to invest and it'll come back doubled in a month or two. It' just not as easy as that, it takes effort, time and knowledge to make money off of investments.
