I got my license taken away for having too much one night
It literally ruined my life.
I gave the walking / public transport lifestyle an honest chance. But its simply miserable and impossible unless you live in NY or Chicago

You realise I don't even spend CLOSE to 3k on ubers right? And that's not including the 1k yearly insurance, 1k yearly maintenance, traffic fines, potentially crashing

new cars are actual retard tier but I got my car for free as a hand me down, the only maintenance I've done on it is change the oil once a year, and I had to replace the battery once. I've owned it for 4 years or so, currently NEETing so I don't drive much but when I did drive to wageslave I barely paid more than $20/mo on gas. my insurance payments are $207 for 6 month coverage. total including things like tab renewal I probably pay somewhere between $600-$1000 annually to be able to drive.

it's not that hard if you aren't a nigger and don't care what the average normie retard thinks about what you drive, although that IS money I could have been putting into LINK instead

>>25928846
also the crashing is an added bonus of driving. as long as you aren't the retard at fault it's literally free money. I got backed into in a parking lot once, they ruined my door. Insurance agent came to my house, wrote up a n accident report, and they handed me a check for a few grand. Sold it off to some mexicans for $500 and kept the check, ez

Bought a motorcycle instead. Don't have to pay for insurance in the state of Florida so I saw it as a smarter investment. Of course there is a chance my brains become a pink froth that end up on the pavement but I prefer my life to be more exciting and less mundane.

I live and work in China. My housing and accommodations are paid for by my employer.
I cook 90% of my meals at home. Every day I complete the same tasks.
1. Thank god
2. Lift
3. Stack sats
4. Learn Mandarin
5. Have sex, or talk to a new girls
6. Thank god

I have zero debt, and zero bills(except for cell phone and internet)
I drive a motorcycle to work, and around the city.

I dump 80% of every check into BTC

In four years I'll retire and spend the rest of my life backpacking around the world.

Moving from suburban area back to downtown metro area in two weeks. Being able to live without a car is great. Will be selling my car in a few months once I'm settled in. Did the math and I can easily spend $300-$400/month in Ubers and weekend rental cars and still come out ahead by ditching the car AND I'll get about a $20k lump sum for selling the car.
