Comment on Uber vs. Car Ownership

Comments

While this is very specific to 20+ year olds, Uber has allowed me to lower my rent significantly.

Being in my early 20s I frequent bars often. I like my car but I can't go to a bar in my car.

Previously, to accommodate my lifestyle I lived in downtown Seattle. This year I moved away, not very far, a 30-40min walk, and am saving about $1000 a month. According to Mint I've only spent $150 (about $6 a ride) on UberX this month.
