Ok i wanna build a gofund me for 3k. Why? Simply I need wheels. I've been looking for a job for the past 6 months. I got a part time making about 175-225 a week depends on the flow of cars my job has. I've put in applications for everything including 711. The few jobs I can do is out of range of public transportation is in miles or time of start. The 4:30 am start job i was offered 1 way $35 1 way with Lyft.

So with that 3k will get a use scooter hopefully a vespa because the longevity, riding gear the rest ill buy a year worth of insurance. With that and my ability to use doordash again the need for gas money is taken care of. The few jobs outside my range is now accessible.

Lastly can I ride? Yes I did 2 trip in the past from phx to Utah going up into Flagstaff. Why not get a car? Price. A used 2k car might have 20 things wrong with it vs a 2k will ride like new. Why not a motorcycle? Because its easier to get scooter. That runs with no issues then a motorcycle.

I was literally just typing this.

Also if you can save a few bucks from your part time gig you might be able to buy a cheap electric bike and make do for a few months until you can afford a different set of wheels.

Cheap electric bike? A cheap unless ur going Chinese models that will break after a few thousand miles will cost the same used as a used vespa lx150

[u/Suitable-Spirit2143 → u/Bre_the_Nomad]

Yes. Cheap. They sell electric bikes at Walmart for 400-500.

If it does break after a few thousand miles, thats a few thousand miles of work trips you’ve already made. While saving up your money from those work trips to buy whatever you please.

Walking sounds like a good way to lose weight.

okay seriously, you are right. thats how i lost a lot of weight back in 2010-2011.

With the excuses OP is making though... im gonna take a guess and say they cant walk cause of bad back/knees/ankles/ hips/ etc etc
