My family lives in an affluent area, but I don't want my kids to take money for granted. I'm taking four steps to teach them good financial habits.

      Sometimes things depend on other things.

      Your out of hand dismissal of complexity is, frankly, baffling and concerning.

      That said, I have lived in suburbia all my life and never have I gone “hmmmm, I really wish I had a golf cart in addition to my car and bicycle”.

        People in my neighborhood have golf carts as well. I don’t get it either. Just drive the car …

          Can you drive a golf cart with a DUI?

          Because sherry moms would explain at least part of it.

            Children are driving them too so you probably have a good point with the DUI angle I hadn’t considered.

          Does your neighborhood have cart paths?

            Yes, it’s one of those resort neighborhoods. We have trails, wide sidewalks, wide bike lanes (this is what everyone drives their carts on usually).
