I go my license when I was like 28 yrs old. Mostly because I just didn't need one. Should I have gotten one earlier? Sure, I guess so. I am also 32 year old virgin.

And yet I made 100's of Gs off of crypto and I am the only one of my friends who ever did anything out of the box. Maybe I am just an oddball. High independence but also easily complacent. It's like this volatile tension in my life and I swing between the extremes of relying on others and going my own way.

Chads have high internal locus of control when things go right (they went right cos they are chad after all) and low when they go wrong (chad was right, the world is wrong).

It’s not even mathematically possible to get your license before the age of 16.5 in my state. There’s a class you must take if you’re under 17, as well as a mandatory waiting period between the written and final test.

Less young people are driving because they’re penniless. It’ll take you a full year or more of full time minimum wage work to afford an absolute beater piece of shit. That’s assuming you never spend a dime and that’s before you consider the cost of insurance for young people and gas are both astronomical. It’s simply not possible for many kids.

Man I hear about places where getting a license takes a day or a few weeks and it blows me away with how much better that is.
In my area (ontario) when we turn 16 we can only do a written test where after passing we can only drive if there's another licensed driver in the front seat and can't go on highways.
Then after 12 months we can take a driver tests where if you pass you can drive on your own, but it expires after 3 years and can't be renewed.
Then after another 12 months (or 8 months if you take a driver education course) take another drive test, where if we pass we get the full driver's license.
It's not even possible to get the full license until you're 17, and most won't get it until they're 18, and it's such a complicated hassle where the testers yell at you and fail you for random bullshit like going through an intersection that turned yellow 0.1 seconds before you're about to enter, and bullshit rules like driving on the right lane on city streets where everyone is going 50km/hr, that no one actually does when they're driving and that they only know because they paid a driving instructor $200 to "teach them". Complete scam system.

I passed my written test immediately but slacked on passing the driver tests because I couldn't afford a car, I was poor and I lived on a farm and getting paid work wasn't possible because my parents didn't want to drive into town to drop me off or pick me up for shifts. Can't get a job, and can't afford a car without a job, so what's the point of getting a license when you can't drive anywhere anyway?
Didn't get my license until after I graduated college at 23 and got a decent paying job where I could afford a car.

there are basically no fresh apples, 99% chance the apples you get at the supermarket are from last year, they arent necessarily bad, but have slightly less vitamins and more sugar, they made a test around here and people preferred a year old apple to the fresh one just because they are used to it (and like more sugary ones)

Some of us grew up super poor. Started working when i was 13 as a constructionlaborer for the summer. I moved out when i was 16. Got a studio apartment in 20 year old girlfriends name. Worked at mcdonalds and sold acid to stretch cash. Wasn't a druggie. License didnt come until i was 19 and had saved enough to buy a decent 5 year old car with low miles in cash. That doesn't mean i haven't been ambitious. Im 40 years old now, pretty successful.
