"My very first car. It was in 1998, I was 19 years old when I bought it. A 1987 Chevy Camaro. It needed some work, it looked like s@#t, but I loved that car. My friends liked it as well. My sister’s friends all told me it was garbage, but their parents bought them newer cars that they didn’t appreciate."

Sure, I could afford to just buy it, but I decided to pay for this one outside my regular budget, so I set aside some money each month for a while. Just as I had enough set aside it became available and with a discount, so I'll probably get the kit to put lights in it as well.
I'll "set money aside monthly" more when I want something though; getting something you want feels better when you have saved up for it over time rather than just having enough money after bills to simply buy it.
