The smart ones buy their own car to drive.
Those renting are the indentured slaves forever tied to having paying rent and fuel daily.
The smartest ones even maintain their cars themselves and selectively keep mileage low.

My uncle always compare with comfort taxi.
My uncle onlee will take taxi or grab on 2 type of situation
1. When need to bring someone for medical checkup and that person is not fit to take bud.
2. When his tpg Job can fallout in the middle of the night
Other than this 2 there is no way my uncle will take.

This is a business and your rent the car, not buy it. Rent a car is a walk in and walk out without holding the liability...

You are faced with these dangers about that can bankrupt you if buy a car.

1. Your are faced with demerit points....
2. Car accident...
3. Hospitalised, sickness and broken bones....
4. Car loans....
5. Car depreciation...
6. Uber suspended or throw you out from complaints and accident

1. Once you lose all the demerit points that stop you are out of the game.

2. Car accident and delay repairs can hurt your finance still paying the loan. Renting car you get another one the next day. No break and delay.
3. If you have a car loan and get into a health problem you still have to pay the car loan...

Better option is rent a car and is a walk in and walk out situation. No liabilities from day one.

why buy when you can rent....

Seriouslee my uncle think there is no other leeson that people should take grab even they have the money. Our intention is to reach the destination onlee what for so rush ? Can't they plan time ahead ? For comfort my uncle doesn't think is leelee comfortable at all to be inside a car. As for going back home in middle of the night defintelee is worth it than to stay in orfid
