A friend recently wrote a blog post, On Being a Bad Driver. I relate 100%. I wrote about driving before on my website, but here is another go at it for the newsletter. Growing up in a very modest family, I asked my dad for an unthinkable luxury item when I was sixteen. I wanted a car. I didn’t have any trouble getting my license. I was good at taking tests. He said no. We didn’t have any spare money.
A friend sent me this article after reading mine: Lifetime Cost Of Small Car $689,000; Society Subsidizes This Ownership With $275,000
