There are no worthy companies. Oh, you mean 'worthy to me'. Well, the answer remains the same. I give people and companies the benefit of the doubt at first, but the moment they lose my trust they are 'dead to me'. So I maintain a list for 'do not buy from this company'. In some company cases I will nuance that list: for example HP laptops are on my 'never ever buy again' list. On the other hand, I buy nothing but HP LaserJet printers.
I do subscribe to the 'Buy twice as good, and only buy half as many' philosophy. I tend to buy upmarket cars and computers and then keep them for 10 years or more.
Probably more accurately, you might say I go for dependability. When I hop in that car, I expect it to start at first go, and then go as far as I want it to.
