This is absolutely true. At the risk of drifting off topic I'll share a funny - my wife was wanting a new suburban and I was resisting the idea (her current one was only 4 years old with about 60,000 miles) and of course she wanted a NEW one with all the bells and whistles. I told her we simply couldn't afford that, to which she replied with a great big smile "Oh honey, that's where you are wrong! We have plenty of money! We have an airplane!"

She got her suburban...

Same here. That's the thing that keeps me sane in all of this. Also provides plenty of social distancing ... .
