[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A car. Our HHI is about $250k, we have three kids, live in a dense neighborhood in DC and do not own a car. It's so much easier. One less hassle, no trips to the DMV, no need to clean or get gas or find parking or get an inspection. Saves a ton of money. And we end up walking a ton which is good for the body and mind. For the longest time I kept thinking it would get hard at some point - once we bought a house, once kid number 2 got here, once the kids got bigger - and we'd buy a car. My current one is "once a kid has a travel sport" - that would really break us. And if we need one, we'll get one, we're not absolutists. But it continues to be a delight. [/quote] Uber is the best. [/quote] Using bottom class modern slave labor drivers at your beck and call via app to cart you around and haul every Amazon and grocery item to your porch every day isn't exactly toughing it out without a car in any traditional sense.[/quote]
