Episode 4127:
Emily Guy Birken has wanted the same 1970s Porsche 911 since she was fourteen, and the research suggests she is happier for never having bought it.

Quotes to ponder:
"Once you own something, you get used to it."
"We are all looking for the next new thing to want, and if we have the money, each purchase will simply give us a momentary high before the cycle begins again."
"Basically, I've gotten a great deal more pleasure out of twenty years of lusting after a car than I would ever be able to experience by buying it."
