 “It doesn’t make sense for anybody to work hard every day and not drive around in what they desire if they can afford it,” she says. “If you prioritize, if you save, if you plan, you can get anything you want in this life.” 

CNBC’s Kevin O’Leary’s comments

O-leary argued that couple fights over finances have been an important marital problem in the United States.

 “Every marriage has a debate like this, whether it’s a car or something else,” he says. “In my marriage, it’s my watches. I come home with another watch and my wife goes nuts.”

He calls the disappearance of their revenue “brutal,” and says that it’s important that “America can see the effect that Covid had on businesses like yours.”

The CNBC journalist argued that there is a solution that could make both happy. O-leary said that instead of buying a new Mercedes, Jocelyn could go to a Mercedes dealership and negotiate a three-year lease at her same monthly rate of $480. The lease includes 15,000 miles per year with a drivetrain warranty which requires the dealership to cover the repair costs.
