i'm thinking of getting a new car  why shouldn't i lease one?

it's a very simple equation. if we forget about the stress and limitations that come with the so-called "lease", and make the following assumptions: then after 3 years of using this new car: i will never understand why people still "lease" a car. even for very low income people who have to have a car, financing a per-owned decent car would do, but it's just "show off" seduction and lure that either unknowing minded or idiot teenagers fall for.
