I own zero cars and rent when required. I save a fortune.

For sure! If your living situation allows it that’s definitely the cheapest option, at least for car budget.

By myself I can live with my bicycle and motorbike but once kids, daycare, schools and 10Kg of groceries per week come in to your life things change.

Most grocery stores in the places I’ve lived offer online shopping. From Amazon Fresh to Carrefour. Try it, it will save you so much effort.

Better for the environment too.

Not the case in central/eastern Europe (where most personally owned vehicles are second hand)
