I’ve posted around my local facebook groups for carpooling options/ride sharing/ride sharing/renting.

Combined with the immense cost of paying some one submarket rates (less than taxi/uber) to bring me to the job and back, i’d only be taking home slightly more than minimum wage.

Can I theoretically buy a car for like 3 months then like sell it at not too much of a loss?

I’m in a bad state right now financially and don’t have another job lined up. This seasonal job will hopefully help me get a better physical labor job like becoming a carpenter or like plumber.

My boss and a few other (capitalists) people tell me that buying a car is a good investment and is like guaranteed to increase income… I guess if I did manage to become like an carpenter or whatever, then i’d need a car to bring all my tool stuff around town?

          Lmao with what capital/resources? There’s a pretty high chance most of what they make driving for uber goes to covering their car payment/maintenance.

          Op says he lives in a rural area so I doubt they’re going to be pulling any ‘taxi stings’ as disgusting as that sounds. However its yet another good reason to never go to LA and definitely do not live there.
