I’ve always had a car since I was 18 years old, but my significant other stopped driving around a decade ago.
Just going from two cars to one has saved us thousands upon thousands of dollars in gas, maintenance, registration fees, insurance, and parking fees at apartments.
It’s definitely not 100% because of not owning two cars, but it’s certainly at least partially because we only own one car (that these days I don’t even use on a daily basis) that we have bought and paid off our condo, and now have an extremely low overall COL in an extremely high COL area.
