My friend says you should always lease cars because buying is so much more money and lease payments are easy. Is leasing really better?

Your friend is not crazy, but the claim that you should always lease is too simplistic. Leasing can absolutely be the smarter move for some drivers, especially if they want lower monthly payments and a new car every few years. Buying can be better if you keep cars for a long time, drive a lot, or want to stop making payments and build equity.

Man getting ticket for texting

I was at a red light and used my phone to text my wife. A cop next to me pulled me over and gave me a ticket. How is that illegal if I wasn’t driving?

You’re stopped at a red light. The car isn’t moving. You quickly glance down, fire off a text to your wife, and look back up. Harmless, right? Then a few seconds later, you’re getting pulled over. You know that texting while driving is illegal—but you weren’t even driving?

The dealer told me this was the "last one at this price," but I saw the same deal online the next day. Is this a common tactic?

If a dealer told you a car was the last one available at that price, then you saw the same deal online the next day, your reaction is justified. That kind of pressure pitch is a classic urgency tactic in sales. It does not automatically mean the dealer broke the law, but it is common enough that regulators and consumer advocates have warned shoppers about it for years.
