Keith's Blog: What Do You Want Under Your Tree This Year?

For those in need of a reason to buy a car, the holiday season offers the perfect excuse. As my birthday comes near Christmas, I conjure up even more fantastical justifications.

It’s the time of year that you’re likely to hear phrases like these from around the SCM office:

     “It’s Christmas, I deserve an Alfa Sprint.”

     “I haven’t bought a car in months, and I need one more Lotus before the year is out.”

     “If I buy a TR6 before the end of the year—for business purposes of course—I can take an entire year’s depreciation.” 

Here’s my personal favorite reaction to buying a Ferrari, courtesy of Mike Sheehan:  “It’s the nicest thing I ever did for me!”

Tell me what you want under the tree this year in the comments, and your favorite justification for buying it. Happy hunting!
