    I hope you’re not posting while driving your car!

    Lol it’s only not used to drive while at work. What about having a car to drive for when you’re not working?

      I was parked outside work, waiting to come inside :).

      I will admit that there isn’t much reason for me to have a car, except for the fact that I take my vehicle off-road on weekends, it would be pretty pointless me having a car to myself.

      I can carpool with colleagues or family to work and I can purchase groceries locally. I can also catch public transport.

      I pay a large chunk of my income for the privilege of owning a car; registration, servicing, fuel and repayments add up quickly; the money would be much better spent on other things.

      For the cost of my car, I could buy 4 PowerWalls and some solar panels; another for our house (which would reduce our grid-reliance to zero), a couple for my Sisters house (which would do the same for them) and one for my mother’s house.

      My car is not a luxury car but is a luxury expense.
