"Selling something to cover your expenses might be a blessing in disguise if the thing you sell is a liability in the first place (ex: a car you cant really afford)." In that specific case, no. In the US today, a car is damn near mandatory. Otherwise you'll be spending hours commuting on a bus, and that's if you're lucky enough to be somewhere with decent bus service. And that's assuming you have the type of job schedule where you can have that kind of time. Many times, not being able to keep your car, even if it's expensive in maintenance costs, means you could lose your job.
