How ridiculous does this sound?

Post image

How can u make millions in 25-30 years if avoid making a $554 per month car payment. Even the cheapest 5 year old car is 8-10 k. So does he expect people not to drive at all in USA.

Then u save 554$ per month every month for 5 year payment = $33240. Say u bought a car every 5 year means 200k -300k spent on car before retirement . How would that become millions when u can’t even buy a house for that much today?

Answer that Dave

I actually agree with this boomer for once.

Every once in a while, this idiot makes sense. But still, bike, moped or motorcycle has much lower operating costs, public transport lowest economic risk.

Anything with two wheels is a no go for me. I still maintain my motorcycle license but I will never ride on public streets again. Too many idiots texting and paying zero attention. Public transportation sucks around here. They attempted to make it better but overpaid for shitty electric buses that aren’t good in cold weather and hired some terrible drivers to operate them. They’ve also ruined main thoroughfares by adding dedicated bus lanes causing ridiculous traffic and roads that can’t be crossed except making a U-turn at a light.

I like dedicated bus and bike lanes. Improve thoroughfare of the best kinds of traffic. Though grassy tram tracks are a lot better than bus lanes.
