When to Buy Whensday

A study of economics usually reveals that the best time to buy anything is last year.
-Marty Allen


Interested in the art of when to buy? End of the year is coming up so it is time to make any last minute purchases to get some money off the books and avoid taxes. How much difference does it make though? Doesn't it seem like you're going to get taxed on that money either way - either you enjoy the tax benefit this year or you enjoy next year. Perhaps next year you will be smarter about tax planning so you don't have to resort to a last minute buy. 


It is apparently the perfect time to purchase a Macbook Pro - my technology purchasing consultant explains that the best time to purchase is when the new model comes out. Apparently the price doesn't change throughout the year so if you purchase it on the last day that the old technology is available you are paying the same amount as the person who purchases the new technology a day later.



Should I get it?
