He's been told that here for years and years now...he's spent thousands this past year *alone* on that stoopid Leaf...and then there is his gasoline - guzzling van "Baby"...
In addition to totally lacking common sense, he's bi - polar, which greatly adds to his carelessness with money...when he gets a few bux he'll immediately squander it on stoopid shit like LP's, antique audio crap, etc....
What can one say about a person who spends $120K on a tile roof (with COPPER GUTTERS...!!!) for his house - when the house alone is *not* worth that much...
John's "justification" for spending that much on the roof is that it will "last for 300 years"...
Instead of steadily working to grow his assets and wealth like a normal - brained person would, he inherited - and has mostly blown - an inheritance from his father...
He's informed us several times that he has not had enough money to buy food - he apparently does not even stock basic pantry items for his "lean times"...
At the age of 61 he can look forward to his "Golden Years" as being years of privation and homelessness...he'll lose the house, that's a pretty sure bet...
He needs to be watching Suze Orman instead of those ancient PBS nature docs...or ask you for some sensible "frugal living" tips...
