mmm, diagree totally....finance payments on a $7,000 item would be peanuts.... $75 a week over 2 years, or $55 a week over 3 yrs apx using very general figures. If someone cant afford that, time to get a new job. Most people spend that on alcohol or cigarettes, gambling or something else useless weekly probably...(each to their own)
Most luxury items are financed by the average Joe Blow, and thats the whole idea why people work their ass of 5 or 7 days a week, so they can afford the small nice things in life...and make a small payment each week or month to enjoy some nice things on their 1 or 2 days off.....
We could all buy pushbikes, live in tents, and never have to finance a car or house ever again....and u might save 10 bux a week on interest...probably not the best way to do things...we live in 2012, in a modern beautiful country...i dont think someone financing a pinball if they want to is going to hurt anybody.....most people are financially responsible...
