Questions on Leica M

I know it is common practice today and a lot of people do it....get a loan and buy a gear. I guess it works for a lot of folks. I approach financials a bit differently. Personally I compare every purchase to my monthly NET income and always pay cash if I think I can afford. This is why I said I would probably be able to pay for a Ferrari if I will be able to pay $25.000 to get a camera body with 2 lenses

I just finished paying off the MM and 35 lux a few months ago. I had 18 months no interest so I used the CC's money for a year and a half.

I also do the same. I had the money put away so I could afford it but decided to use someone else's money for a year and a half if it wasn't going to cost me anything. No interest for 18 months on 13K. Not a bad decision I'd say.

I do this full time so photography pays for all the equipment, the mortgage, the car, the kid through school, vacation, well you get the drift. 25K is still a little short of many of the Hasselblad and Phase one options.
