Ever since I saw how bad the infestation of cars is in the streets all around me, I just don’t find the idea of buying my own car very appealing anymore, in my small and dense town, every new vehicle on the street is a problem when the streets are tight and people already double park in many spots.

However, I do drive around my parents cars when I need to cause public transit here isn’t the best but I try to utilize it as much as I could.

Nevertheless, long gone are the times when I used to watch YT chaneels like carwow and hoping that I get to own the cars that I see, I can maybe compare my resentment towards buying a vehicle to the idea of buying cigarettes or alcohol to someone who quit either, a silly comparison but I hope it gives you an idea.

    My car was totaled so I had two options: 1) buy another car so I could get to work. 2) quit my job since there is no way to get there without a car.

      If I worked at the supermarket near me in the Netherlands: just walk there.
