The more expensive the product, the worse it gets. the only guarantee in life that comes with being rich, is that you can loose it all. Just because people have money, doesn't mean they are smart.
Whew, now I can get off my soap box, I feel much better now, don't ask how my week was.
Boy you nailed that one. I work in the service department at the local Mercedes-Benz dealer and I've had similar experiences. Actually the worst ones are the ones who really stretched themselves financially to buy something they can't really afford. I just remind them that they can call their lawyer if they want to, but their lawyer isn't going to fix their car. The truly rich are much better to deal with.
