Owning a car is for suckers. If you'd put all your money, that you'd otherwise put into a car, into a compounding index fund, from your 16th birthday onwards, you will have a million $ at your 50th.
yeah but then I'd have to take public transportation like a retard

Wow! Where do I sign up? I'm sure you could reach that goal faster if you actually worked.

Tell me, what's the point of money if I'm not using it to buy the things I love?
Say you put the average 5k into a Roth IRA retirement 401k at age 18. You would probably only have around 300k when you are 60. So a car isn't bad if you have to avoid the hassle of public transportation.

People want money to make them happy and in result worrying about money making them happy they're unhappy, so indeed this.

You can't not have a car where i live.
public transport is a city person thing.
