You’re very lucky to be able to work 40 kilometers from where you live. Nobody in the history of the world until about a hundred years ago could do something so ostentatious. The way people of 200 years ago would see your life, is the way you and I see billionaires flying across the country on a private jet every day to commute to work.
Yeah, cars are bourgeois as hell. Nobody should ever buy a car. Just use public transit.
Or, if there is no public transit available, just cycle to work! For me it’s only 40 kilometers a day, no problem at all!
