    Portland has one of the better public transport systems in the US and it took me 90m each way to my first job here, or 20m if I could get a lift. Both ways, that’s losing 10% of an entire day.

    Not having a car cost me 1.2 working days each week. I didn’t even have a license when I moved to the US - I learned to drive at 30 y/o because its a necessity in the US.
