    As a mechanic, I had a Miele in my condo, and now have a Bosch Benchmark (both built ins with custom panels) in my new house. Both were $10k+.

            Nah there’s A LOT wrong with being rich when people are starving and homeless. You don’t have to be a billionaire to be an asshole with your wealth.

              There it is. Probably won’t take much to hear you say “most that can’t afford it simply didn’t try as hard as me and the people I know cause hard work is all you need”.

                It’s hard as hell, and I also got lucky getting a job at a dealer that actually takes care of its employees. Also lucky that this trade is in very high demand. I could leave here and have five job offers by tomorrow. That actually happened back when I was an apprentice, got laid off from the small independent shop I worked at. Had two job offers before I even got home.
