dawg what do you mean you’re paying 25k for a used skoda kodiaq that is neither fun nor really practical for hauling people or stuff. you’ve got a 5km commute. the public transport is bad but it’s not “spend 15k more every few years to not have to take the bus for a week while your slightly older car is in the shop” bad. What the fuck.

And that’s carbrain costs, that doesn’t even include like biweekly washes or the yearly inspection because they’re “trying to preserve value”. Dawg just buy a perfectly serviceable toyota aygo for like 8k and run that fucker in the ground. What do you mean you pay like 400€ a month for 60 months at 7% APR before the thing is even insured or moved a single meter.

    A friend of mine works from home and yet she pays $900 per month on her car, not even counting insurance or how the car requires the more expensive 91 octane rated gasoline. I spent $4k on my car, one time, around five years ago and I only use it to go to work. Everywhere else I have a bike lol
