Re: Purchasing or Leasing which is better?

I have included a link to Kristen, Eliot Spitzer's friend. I think most of us know of Heather Mills, the ex Mrs. of Paul McCartney.  This was forwarded by a friend and I thought it was really funny.  So in the interest of a lighter fare on the board......

Purchasing or Leasing - which is better?


Many people cannot decide which is cheaper - purchasing or leasing.

We'd like to help you decide by illustrating two charming stories of

foolish men and cunning women.

Purchasing

The math on the Paul McCartney - Heather Mills divorce is:

After 5 years of marriage, he paid her $49 million.

Assuming he had sex with her every night during their 5 year relationship,

it ended up with him purchasing her @ $26,849 per time.

This is Heather...



Leasing

On the other hand,

New York Governor Eliot Spitzer's favorite escort, Kristen,

charged $4,000 per night.


This is Kristen...

So, had Paul McCartney "employed" Kristen for 5 years @ $4,000 per night,

he would have paid only $7.3 million in total for sex every night.

This represents a $41.7 million saving for Eliot.

What a shrewd man Eliot is, compared to the aging Beatle.


Further valuable benefits of this Leasing option are:

* a (real) 22 year old

* no need for coaxing / pleading / begging

* never a headache

* happily agrees to all technical requests

* no complaining

* no Honey - please do this lists

* has two legs - I thought this was mean spirited

Best of all, she leaves and returns when asked.

All at 1/7th the cost and no legal fees.

What does Heather think about this Purchase v Lease conundrum?



Where would you rather be?...
