When you open a car, you eventually realize the biggest waste is the insane amount of time you spend driving the thing. It's honestly disheartening if you add up all the time you spend sitting in there, for commuting, errands, traveling. Not to mention sitting in traffic. Like, even if it was more expensive to get rid of the car (it's not) it might still be worth it for the tens of thousands of hours of your life that you'd gain.

You have to be dumb for a car to make you happy. The excitement that comes from purchasing one goes away after 6 months. Then its just your old car, but youre still making payments on it. Normiecattle will gladly finance a car upwards 100k to look smart, but given that money amount in cash, you'd have to be a nigger to blow it all on cash. Lesson learned: normalniggers are beyond saving financially speaking. They dont mind working until they are 70, gauging at their consumer behavior.

If you live anywhere in America outside of any major city, you generally need a car. Unless your job is a 10 minute walk, or less.

And no, a car gives you a lot of freedom to travel wherever you want, whenever you want, as long as it's not a totally unreliable shitbox, or a sports-car that can't drive in the winter and costs half of your income every month.

Also, good morning everybody.

This is only true if you're an incel (one of the perks of being one). Without a car you can't take your kids to school/practices/doctor etc. I've seen single mothers carry around their 2 kids on the bus and it's always a pathetic sight as they struggle.

You need a car if you want a wife or kids. You gonna take them around on the bus and metro? It’s also a status symbol and you’re in that game you like it or not. All your peers will judge you on your car or lack of. It doesn’t have to be a luxury car or w/e just something that doesn’t scream poor. Nothing dries up pussy more than a carless dude. There’s exceptions if you like in dense cities like NYC or w/e.

Far from it man, but it kinda depends on where you're at. I'm in the countryside. I hit up the town 'cause I'm running Uber and handling errands for the locals.

Plus, I'm chilling alright 'cause I'm all about that DIY life.

Got a bunch of offline clients for my Uber hustle, and it's probably 'cause I hook 'em up with some sweet entertainment during their 1-2 hour rides with my holoride retrofit device, as they can game, stream movies all packed into one ride.

If you're tired you can just get on a bus here in europoor shithole and not need to worry about crashing when you drive. They increased the price tickets at night so the low class vermin doesn't use it at night (based). But I still hate public transport, niggers used to be rare in this shithole but now every other week I smell something bad and I check to see what it is and it's a black woman. When ameri-mutts complain on the internet about nogs it sounds like trolling but I now know from real life experiences that blacks don't wash.

Safe real estate in dense areas with lots of public transit is more expensive than real estate in less dense areas + automotive expenses. , unless you get completely retarded on what sort of car you buy. And those high density, public transit dependant areas end up having longer average commute times than less dense automotive dependant areas. Since having a car both saves you money & time, why would you not want one?
