Reminds me of an old joke.

Two kids in the bath together when the boy points to his crotch and exclaims to his sister "I've got one of these and you haven't".

The sister points to her own crotch and replies "but I've got one of these, and with one of these I can get as many of those as I want".

buy appreciating assets

Rent depreciating assets

A common one but utter nonsense. Do people renting things commercially really kindly absorb the depreciation for you? Seems a little unlikely.

No, but your costs are fixed, and you have no equity tied up. The depreciation is not guaranteed so the renters are carrying risk
Think about all those diesels on a lease at the moment and which way that might go.

But there are of course still good and bad deals before you start as well as afterwards.
