  I got a car loan once even though I had the cash to buy outright. I didn’t want to drain my savings and end up high and dry if there was an emergency. It was worth it to me to pay a little interest so I still had a cash buffer.

  If I were living paycheck to paycheck like many folks are, I imagine the logic would be similar for smaller purchases.

  It’s truly a gift to see my original comment, which boils down to “huh, odd choice of words,” defended with such eloquence. The internet may not be paradise but I ask you, where else could this meeting of the minds have occurred?

  I would have gotten away with it, too, if not for you mean cows

  “Stealing”? Am I “stealing” fat from the food I eat? Since when is retaining some components of what you consume equivalent to theft?

  Search is essential to my job, so Kagi is well worth it for me. Better rankings than Google, clean results, no ads, kind of a no-brainer for me.
