The good news, is that Wilder's Law, like much of quantum (or Vanagon)
mechanics, only really applies to the average. By spending $16,300 more
than Wilder's Law requires, you've allowed four other people to simply
drive their $4000 Vanagons with no additional outlay.

I'm sure they thank you, whomever they might be.
