I disagree with PG. Ofcourse you can create wealth by fixing an old car. But you will need two things: investment (an old car) and resources (time for instance). When you are working +100 hours a week (commuting included) just to make ends meet it's very hard to fix an old car. Most of the people I describe here are totally exhausted when they come home from work. When you are exhausted it's very hard or even impossible to get out of your situation.
