In my experiences and through education, my view has always been that there is no “one good” answer when it comes to lease or buy. Which makes it even more frustrating when companies push it on you. They try to make you feel like it is the best option possible, and you simply don’t understand finances if you don’t agree with them. I am writing to remind you that there are two sides to this argument, and they both have pros and cons.
