PenisHealthLife.net Now his car usesPosted by bind lijst on July 13th, 2019 PenisHealthLife.net Now his car uses 8 of fuel for every 100 driven. Each day he drives 60, so each week he drives 300. This means he uses 24 litres of fuel each week. If fuel was selling for .30, on average he uses .20 on fuel alone. Plus parking his car 5 days a week at a day he would be spending a week in parking. Petrol .20 Parking Total per week to get to and from work 6.20 Or if he works 48 weeks a year this would cost ,577.60 This does not take into account any wear and tear on his car. For example using extra oil, less time between servicing and possible accidents including insurance claims. Train On the train he pays .20 per trip in and out. So it would cost him .40 a day. Total per week to get in and out to work is Or if he works 48 weeks a year this would cost ,016. This is a saving of ,561 So in this case the train wins hands down. Sure it's not as comfortable. Not as nice to sit in a train when you could be in a nice car cruising at your own pace. However the savings can't be denied. Plus on a train you don't have to worry about the price of petrol. Your ticket price is set. If fuel for example went up to an average of .50 per litre, all of a sudden you would be spending an additional 1 to get to and from work by car. Let's say each year for five years you could save ,500 by taking the train. You put that money into a savings account at 5% interest over the five years at monthly intervals. At the end of 5 years you would have ,857.78. Not bad hey? So my advice to my friend or to you the reader. If you have a choice, take the train to add to your bank balance.
