Don’t pay for 95% (2016)

Is owning a car (or maybe, a second car?) more freeing? Are you that much happier for owning a blender?

I think there's another take on this advice, that it's not about optimizing spending, but simplifying your life and obligations by avoiding the burden of ownership and minimizing debt.

I think the point is more that renting is a pain in the ass and you simply wouldn't bother. You either buy the blender or you don't use a blender. No one would go through the effort of renting one when they don't need it.
