If they haven't been trapped by a ridiculous car deal, then theyll be trapped in any number of another Money Traps that have been deliberately engineered into society: Health Care, College Tuition, Student Loans, Rent, Gambling Apps, Expensive Consumer Crap, Streaming Platforms, Luxury Phones, etc. Probably several simultaneously.
The entire point is to make us spend every penny before we die, and not leave any sort of inheritance to give the next generation a leg up. And if we get to the end of our lives with a little nest egg left, they know you'll get sick, and they'll get to drain every last penny.
