        I drive whatever my employer provides me. My ride and associated expenses are free.

        Currently a Honda Civic.

        That was my last car. I liked the features but mine was a lemon.

          Right! Keep lecturing me about how poor we are for driving Lexuses.

            Did you miss the part about it being free? I don't need a second car and haven't had to buy a car in 20 years. I get to use my money for other desires.

            Should I refuse the car and pay for my own?

              ...and I didn't lecture you. I pointed out that Russians on average are poorer. I have no idea your wealth nor do I care.

                  That is your problem! I don't care about expenses and HONESTLY don't know and do not bother about the gas price!

                  But I did an effort to recall, it's something like 1600 roubles for 30 litters, wich is somethin like 1.9 per gallon.

                    What do you call freedom?

                    Can you honestly answer how much do you own to your bank?

                      Yeah, a phone is also one of my perqs. The company wanted me to have an iphone and I was happy with a fliptop. They had to pay for the change.

                      The company car is for whatever personal use I want. I even took the year off in 2021 (ailing father) but kept the car for trips back and forth to eastern Ontario (250 miles each way). My company treats me well.

                        well 1600 roubles is like $14 US dollars. which would be something like 3.5 gallons. which would be 13.someting liters. is this right?

                            Not having to buy a car is nice. Not exactly "freedom" but since that is the current topic...


                            Can you honestly answer how much do you own to your bank?
                            Aside from less than $100 on my credit card I owe nothing to a bank. I'm semi-retired and eyeing full retirement in the next couple years. Current age 56.
