Well-off people normally have more than one car. They have cars for work and they have cars for special occasions. The special occasion cars are usually luxury cars that cost several times as much as a regular sedan. The question is should you be buying luxury cars at all?

Some people prefer luxury cars over a sedan. And there are simply too many cars in the market claiming to be one even if they are short on certain features. So before you fall for these claims hook, line, and sinker, it is best that you know what a luxury vehicle really is and what is not.

Leather seats and an exceptional stereo system don't make a car a luxury vehicle. Keep in mind that luxury cars are not built overnight. More than the make and model of the car, these vehicles require years of planning and design. And so the companies that are worthy to release luxury cars are only those who have been in the automotive industry for a long time. It would be an added plus it they have already proven their worth in that particular line.

Lexus cars and Rolls and Royce are good examples of luxury cars. But before you go ahead and purchase these vehicles, you've got to ask yourself if you can afford it. If you can't, would you settle for a second-hand? Luxury car manufacturers imply that if you're asking for the price of a luxury vehicle prior to buying it, chances are, you can't afford it. So unless you can go up to a million on one luxury car, it is not worth asking whether or not you should buy one or not.

Why do you have to buy a luxury car in the first place? This is the most important question of all. Would like to buy one because you want to look better off among your friends and colleagues? Would you like to impress somebody? Or do you simply like to own one, park it around the house, and pull it off the garage whenever you want to arrive in style at some place? While these are all good reasons to buy luxury cars, they are not sufficient enough to justify the price of these vehicles. Even if you're buying a second-hand, it is still advisable that you go for a brand new sedan that performs better than a run-down BMW.

Luxury cars are expensive because they have lots of extras. For one thing, driving these cars is a lot more comfortable than driving anything else. The cabin is very comfortable and it is a quiet ride all the time. You'll never hear the noise of the engine as you drive it. Also, the body of the car is impeccable. No flaws or inferior materials used whatsoever. Luxury cars are cars made for the king. And that's why they're priced for the king too.

Maintaining such cars can be a pain in the pocket as well. This is yet another point to consider when buying luxury cars. Are you prepared to buy twice as much gas? Would you have the time and the means to leave the car at an expensive car care center for regular checkups? Keep in mind that your cash out would not be over after the purchase the car. Expect to spend more as you go along.

One of the best ways, to add pleasure to your garden, is to add garden furniture. Whatever the type of backyard you have, it can be made more attractive with rustic garden furniture. Below are 10 ideas to help you choose which particular type is suitable for your garden.

1. Choose whether your garden will look better with modern or traditional furniture, just because you want to have rustic garden furniture, it doesn't have to be traditional. There are plenty of companies producing modern designs in traditional materials.

2. Decide what you are going to use your furniture for. Are you going to be sitting to enjoy the beauty of your garden or for entertaining friends and family? Will you need extra chairs and tables, for card games or afternoon tea, or just relaxing.

3. Where are you going to put your new rustic garden furniture? Are you a sun worshipper, or do you prefer the shade? Is it going to get more use by the pool, or at the end of the garden amongst the scented roses, in complete privacy? Perhaps you need to put it by the childrens' play area, so that you can keep an eye on them?

4. Are you going to have to keep moving the pieces to other areas, when mowing the lawn or following the sun. If you only have room for one set of rustic garden furniture which has to be moved around, make sure that it's not too heavy to move.

5. If you are going to have several sitting areas, will you want to have the same type of furniture for each area, or would different styles and materials look more attractive? Only you can decide, so it's worth spending some time, walking and looking at your garden, at different times of the day, before deciding.

6. Would any permanent furniture pieces look better in stone or wood? Bear in mind, that although stone can look attractive, you will need cushions to achieve any sort of comfort and if the furniture is situated on grass,you will need to trim round it in a formal garden.

7. Are you looking for the elegance of classic styling? If so, then why not consider wrought iron. These days it is available in many different styles and shapes, as well as an abundance of beautiful colours. Rustic garden furniture of this type, will really set off a classical garden, as well as bringing lightness and airiness to your garden.

8. How much are you able to spend on your garden furniture? Wooden tables, chairs, benches etc., come in a number of different woods including pine, cedar and teak? You can also buy furniture in wicker, cane and rattan. Deciding which is right for you, depends on whether you wish to invest in something that will last for a long time, or will need changing after a few years.Pine, Wicker and Rattan, doesn't last long outside, and will need storing inside for the winter.

9. If going for long lasting, wooden garden furniture, should you choose Cedar or Teak. Well made furniture of both these woods, will last for a very long time, with only a little maintenance. Being hard woods, they are resistant to warping and splintering as well as insect infestation.

10. Take good care of your garden furniture and it will repay you for many seasons. Teak Oil will return the wood to its as new appearance, but all furniture should be checked for chips and splinters and cleaned when necessary.Of course in a traditional cottage garden, some wear and tear adds to the ambiance of the garden.

Whatever you choose, enjoy your garden for many seasons and many years. If you would like more ideas for rustic garden furniture, why not visit Perennial Flower Garden Ideas.

If you are shopping for property insurance for your home, here are some things to keep in mind about getting the right coverages. This could also save you some money.

Although property insurance is the term many people use when talking about insurance for their house, it's really homeowners insurance, which is a type of property insurance. The only reason to bring this up is to make sure you do not confuse what needs to be included in the coverage amount.

Home insurance typically covers your primary dwelling (your house), outlying structures such as sheds, personal possessions, personal liability to others and living expenses if for some reason you can't live in your home due to a claim.

It does not protect your land, or as some people like to refer to their "property." Basically, the dirt does not need to be insured. So don't use the total price you paid for your home as the coverage amount because this price probably includes the cost of the land your house sits on. If you do include that amount, you'll be paying for a higher coverage amount than you need.

Living expense coverage amounts are usually set by the home insurance company. Personal possessions are generally a percentage of your dwelling coverage amount. Liability is usually a standard minimum amount such as $100,000 which can be increased.

So you just need to determine the cost to replace your home if it's a total loss. This is basically the cost of reconstruction. This is another reason why you don't want to use the price you paid for the home; construction costs and home values may have changed since then.

A quick way to estimate this cost is to multiply the square footage by local building costs-per-square-foot. You can call a local real estate agent or home builders association and ask for this information.

Of course if you already have home insurance, you can use your existing coverages from your policy declarations page to get quotes.

To save money, it's important to comparison shop because rates vary from one company to the next. An easy and fast way to do this is to use a comparison site. An insurance comparison site will give you several quotes back from different companies and you only need to fill out one online form.

Also, consider raising your deductible and taking advantage of all available discounts as additional ways to save money.

Siamese cats are wonderful people-loving cats. They are stubborn and demanding and its difficult to deny them anything. Some Siamese see the world outside and wont take no for answer. They slip out between our legs as we walk in with groceries. They howl at the window. They stand by the door, watching us, waiting for an opportunity.

Its tough not to give in, but by not giving in, your cat will live a longer and better life.
Cars are only one danger to outdoor cats. Other dangers include strangers, and dogs. Other people can steal a cat. Knowingly or unknowingly, a neighbor might leave out a poison. Dogs can frighten a cat and disorient it. Dogs can attack.

In some areas, raccoons, coyotes, cougars and even certain hawks can pose a threat. As our suburbs reach ever farther into the wild areas these creatures called home, they stray into our safe suburban areas. Our outdoor cats are often the first to discover a wild intruder, with disastrous results. Your Siamese is a beautiful cat and was bred to look wonderful. It wasnt bred to fight or to understand how to get away. Their coloring allows them to stand out to predators. Keep them inside where they are safe.

Your Siamese may love the outdoors but its important to keep your cat confined. Large windows are wonderful. Make sure they have screens. Many companies make outdoor enclosures for cats. These enclosures often have perches that allow cats to climb. They have covered areas for cats to hide if they feel threatened. They are solidly made.

Many Siamese can be trained to walk on a leash. So long as a human is always in attendance, cats are typically safe. Its a rare predator who will try and injure a cat with a human around. Children may still want to pet your cat, so if you have a cat, which is unsure, pick them up and warn the child that they may not be friendly. Many Siamese adore this attention, so allow them some time to bask in the admiration!

There are now strollers out that can be used for cats. These are covered so that the cat is safe inside, while still able to look out at the world. While they cant explore up close, this is a nice option if you like to walk but your cat likes to linger. You will go farther faster with your cat looking outside in a stroller than you will walking them on a leash. Your cat also has more protection if a dog suddenly bursts out of nowhere to try and attack. In fact, the dog may not even know your cat is there.

Siamese love to do what they want to do. Realize that part of being a pet owner is keeping your pet as safe as possible. There are ways to keep your cat indoor only but allow them to experience the outside world as they may long to do.
