Just doesn&#x27;t compute. We live in what the author would call a high income neighbourhood but that&#x27;s because we wanted to live walking&#x2F;bike distance to everything, which turns out to be a pretty frugal way to live. We have an old beater for a car and have never had any intention of trying to keep up with the rest of the street&#x2F;neighbourhood. We see a lot of fancy around the place but meh.
