Child vs. Sports Car - The Dilemma

Unbelievable … I can’t even enjoy a nice church service on Sundays without hearing a chorus full of annoying kids crying with high pitched screams. Babies are everywhere now, can’t the parents just leave them at home? Going to a movie theater, forget about it , because some genius had the brilliant notion to bring all their children into an R rated movie without considering the repercussions (hey it’s the cool thing to do right?) This simply surprises me how some families have the audacity to act that way … that is an EPIC FAIL for parenting. Don’t even begin to calculate how much money goes into raising that baby from a disobedient child to an angst-filled adolescent.
 

Studies have shown that the average child could cost around a quarter of a million dollars. Hold your breath, yes – the cost to raise a child from age 1 to 18 is $250,000. Sure you get to see your splitting image grow up and enjoy all those hundreds of hours of home movie footage. For a moment, think about what other options you could use that quarter of a million for. I’m proposing that there is a prominent alternative which many do not consider: Buying an exotic super car instead ! Think of all the wonderful experiences you would have with your exciting new Lamborghini Gallardo. Spend that $250k on something that you will enjoy beyond just a few years! It could truly be a relationship without altercations or disagreements.

Below is a comparison chart :


                       Child                                  Exotic Sports Car

Endless doctor and medical bills
Dealer services and fees
Constantly changing diapers daily
Changing oil every 3 months
Expensive wardrobe and food costs
Auto Detailing equipment
Random events of puke at any moment
Difficult to avoid rain and bird droppings
Contagious baby laughter
Sound system that drowns out any noise
Annoying shrieks of crying
Loud thrilling exhaust sounds
Attention of mostly older women
Attention from younger, hotter women
Makes messes all over house
Occasional fluid leaks in garage
Babysitter required to go out anywhere
Go for an exciting ride any time
Results in emasculated feelings
Instant boost to confidence and ego


As you can see, the results are heavily favored towards the car  – which makes this a no-brainer

Which would you choose ?
