One of my father’s  ironclad rules of life was, “Never buy someone else’s trouble.” Of course, the first time I heard that pronouncement was right after I came home with my first used car purchased “as is” from a lot near the construction site where I had sweated out a summer in purgatory carrying armored cable and 3/4-inch electrical pipe.
He told me I had squandered my money. I defended myself vehemently, which triggered another of his aphorisms: “Never argue with an idiot.” I stomped off in righteous indignation, but came to my senses when the transmission failed shortly thereafter. I was out $400—a month’s pay. At least I didn’t make the same mistake twice.
