So to me that means he didn't have enough savings for car repairs and he didn't have good enough credit to buy another car. Now he has leased his last two cars. All indicative of poor financial literacy. Rayz Rayl is like the polar opposite with his financial decisions and look at where they both have ended up.
I’ve been watching since the beginning, he has never mentioned using a money tree and his car isn’t a lease and neither was the last one.

Agree. Around 35.

This is Boski in his "youth":

I know how old Boski is. What's the cutoff for youth to you?

There's a vlog where he goes down Flamingo and talks about the Check City across from Silver Sevens that he used to visit, when he lived in Vegas the first time, to do his payday loans & get money orders from since they were free for loan customers.

I don't understand the whole "look he drives a lease!" thing as if it's a bad thing. Whether you purchase or lease you still have a car payment each month. A lease would often be cheaper financing and better option on a car that depreciates fast like a Hyundai as they will come with much more robust warranty/maintenance package from the dealership. They know you'll be trading in within 2-3 years. Almost anyone with a job can qualify for a new Hyundai/Kia as long as you don't have any repos on record. It's a good, inexpensive, low maintenance car. They want that car to be in good condition for when they move it to their used car inventory. If it's leased, you'll get a better deal on a trade in for a new lease vs. paying off the balance at whatever interest rate in 4-5 years and being stuck with something with a KBB of <$2500.

You're right. $1600 for 917 sq ft..... a "larger" 1bd and they are asking $2k/mo. Like I said I was just guessing......

This. I personally lease just because I don't want to be on the hook for repairs on a used POS. Been there, done that enough in my youth. I drive an Optima. Good car, and if it breaks in my 3 years other than routine maintenance wise, I'm golden. Most cars aren't worth dick after you've paid on them for 4 years unless they are collectible, which usually aren't daily driver type vehicles anyways. As long as you aren't heavily modifying the vehicle (also dumb **** I did when I was young) then it really is a no nonsense approach to having a comfortable car. I don't understand the appeal of buying used anymore really.

I don't get BK if he truly can work an airline mechanic type thing then why not do it for 5-10 years and retire that's what I would do!

Put me in the same corner, and we have last year's similar sentiment - and subsequent hiatus from Boski that didn't stick - to look back upon

No monthly payment if you aren't using finance.

If you have the money, and want to drive a new car every few years, I understand wanting to lease.

However..

1) You ALWAYS have a car payment.
2) Ridiculous mile restrictions..usually around 12,000 miles per year, and big overage charges.
3) Every little ding or scratch you need to repair when your lease is up.

I used to lease, but ran the numbers and I find it is better just to buy a new car every 3-5 years, and sell the old one. My last two cars were new, fully-loaded, Honda Accords and the resale value is very high on these..buy for 30K, put about 100,000 miles on them and in a few years sell for 15-20K..

After buying and leasing several new cards, from now on I buy used.

My current car is a Chrysler 300 (SRT design with Hemi) ; 100k on the clock, excellent condition and drives like a dream. I bought it for 20% of what they sold for new. I do some of my own maintenance, so that doesn't scare me -- but I haven't had to do anything to this car except change oil and put gas in it.

Nobody is buying a Honda Accord with 100k miles for 20k. lol

Why is that a ridiculous miles restriction? In 40+ years of driving, I've never once exceeded 12k in a year. My 2014 Jaguar, which I will have owned for exactly 4 years come September, currently has ~29k miles on it.

Is that a Jaguar S type? I used to own one for a short time until I traded it in for a discovery. What a POS that was.

I would love to lease, but with my closest poker room 60 miles away I can never stay under the miles. Now I just pay cash for cars, but if anyone decides to do it, don't tell the sales rep until you're ready to buy the car or they will try to raise the price on it. They try to tell me "that was the finance price, we make money on the finance end, the cash price is a bit higher" just pretend to walk and you'll get the same price you agreed on.

No, the S-Type was discontinued a decade ago. It was built from 1999-2008, back when Ford owned Jaguar. What a disaster that was.

My car is the XJL. Here's an old commercial to give you an idea of what it looks like.

If he got a job for a few months with good health insurance then the insurance might even cover it if it was classified as gynecomastia.
