Frugality Is Not In My Dictionary

I know of a prominent bank VP who commutes by taking buses and MRTs.These two poly girls,on the other hand,DRIVE to campus.The make of the cars are not Pacific Rims(KIA,QQ Cherry,Proton Gen2),not Japanese( Honda Fit,Jazz,VIOS) but....CONTINENTAL!The cars are theirs',not daddy's.Ohhh...i am sooo jealous of these kids.My advice to the young is this;Never spend beyond your means(buy on credit,taking easy loans)in order for you to continue enjoying your financial freedom.

Cheaper prices, so young snapping up cars
By Nur Dianah Suhaimi
Last year, Ngee Ann Polytechnic student Siti Nur Puteri, 19, received a brand-new Peugeot 307 from her businessman father before she even got her licence. Her car cost about $90,000.
This year, her father bought a $70,000 Peugeot 1007, this time for her cousin, Miss Mas Indah Puteri, 19, also from Ngee Ann Polytechnic.
Said Miss Siti: 'We chose the Peugeot because we liked the design. I need a car to get to school.'

Yalah.
'I need a car to get to school' sounds so frivolous.
