Sweet's article summary

I've read "WHEELS OR NO WHEELS? WHAT'S THE DEAL?". This article point out that when people decide whether or not to buy an own car, it is necessary to consider of the hidden expenses. Some would like to have one because someone else got one, while some think that it is less important than buying houses; however, nobody's right or wrong. This is because if people are confident that their life will run smoothly, that's fine. This article shows many details about financial problems that people will have from owning a car. First, when people decide to down a car, they have to spent much more portion of their salary on installment each month. Also this article wants the reader think of depreciation of a car. And for the drop in price, the used-car market is a good choice for this problems. Moreover, there are a lot of expenses coming such as fuel which car owner has to face with inevitably, tyres maintenance, shock-absorbers, timing belts and insurance cost as well. Furthermore, there are many kinds of public transportation that are more convenient than owning car. The purpose of this article is not to resist buying am own car but rather to make people who really need one think of these expenses.
I think this articlel is essential for people nowadays since most of them are materialistic and also want to have whatever others have. Furthermore, I hold an idea that all of these expenses mentioned in this article is very significant things that some people usually ignore them, even if they are very important for a person who will buy one and also for a person who has already got it. I think this information benefits for many people including me.
