Girlfriend wants to lease a car but that shit seems like cancer. Can someone explain why this would ever be a good idea?

I believe yes.

I will (and have) happily drive trash cars my whole life. Spending even $20k on a new car has to be one of the worst financial decisions you can make.

There's a girl on FB who I've watched post updates on her car loan for a while.
>Only 8 payments left!
>$160 a week for over 2 years
>Bought a fucking mini cooper
>Straight out of high school
>Works at a muffin shop making just above min wage

That's financial illiteracy for you.
