- blaser-waffle 7y agoMr Money Mustache (MMM) estimated that you saved something like $700 bucks per mile per year you don't drive. I've been remote for ~5 years, haven't owned a car for ~3, and I've saved a bunch of money. Uber and public transit handle most of my needs, and even after monthly passes and uber surge rates I estimate I save close to $500-600 USD a month in car payment/insurance/maintenance. The main downside is that I'm in Canada, and being carless in the winter can get ugly.
