Paid off my house driving recycled wrecked cars. Used the equity to build a much more expensive house. Sold it 3 years later for a $165,000 profit. Built another house with the profit, so that one was basically free as far as money spent.

The cumulative compounding effect of not having made a house payment or a car payment in the last 15 years.

Priceless

Never needed an air bag or a collapsible column, a crush zone, or a stronger roof since 1966.

Heck I drove an Austin Healey Sprite with a door sill so close to the ground you could almost drag your fingers on the pavement. It did save me from an accident when a gent in a Ford Galaxie was backing up into my car at a stop sign and I whacked his car on the trunk brfore he hit me LOL.
