25 years old, no driver's license

Got my license at 28. Didn't really need it since I live in DC. However the metro system went to shit so I just took the test and got my license.

>missing the point of what I said
I got held back in my life too, both of my knees broke from a genetic defect when I was 18 and when I was 20 so I had huge gaps in my employment since I could walk or drive for 2 years combined. What did I do though? Got a stay at home job to support myself rather than lay around. I bought my first car at 19 and taught myself stick on the drive home with it. Had to relearn after my second surgery. I learned driving when I was 16 by working at kroger and putting myself in lessons. It's seriously called manning up and doing what you gotta do, no matter how hard it would seem to start. I'm not being intentionally harsh on the faggot, but people like this need a wake up to reality. What would happen if his parents died in a car wreck tomorrow? He'd be utterly fucked. Start now, stop making excuses so you have a leg to stand on.

>pull your boot straps loser
>obvious support is obvious

so you had health insurance obviously, you had a place to stay obviously, you had the basics provided to you obviously. You don't know OPs life, he may have been on the street for you know. You're assuming he had the sort of support you did when you had rough times, you don't know his life and here you are shitting on it. He's obviously asking for help and advice. If you live in big city usa you could live your hole life and never needed to drive, he's 25 and learning it cut him some slack. I just got mine and im older than OP. You had to learn to, I am sure you stalled it a few times. jesus christ does it cost you a lot of effort to help others instead of shitting on them? What if your support system had shat on you when you needed it? what if the jobs you had you couldn't get? because you believe you actually "worked to get those jobs" and it wasn't a matter of luck? fuck off user

>missing that the advice is actually correct
Should he just keep sitting around and hope for the best or go to work and accelerate his process? He has a place to stay, it's heavily implied that he lives with his parents. Part of those surgeries put me in a deep depression for years that I'm still recovering from. But you CAN'T just let external factors control your life, you really have to just push through. That's why I'm saying this to him, it's what I learned from that and took forever and I wish someone did that for me. It's obvious people in his life aren't helping him with it - so you want him to just twiddle his thumbs and hope for the best, instead of doing something proactive about it? He's obviously not disabled if he's learning how to drive. Also regarding healthcare. Duh, Obamacare was kinda in full effect at that point bud and like I said, I got a stay at home job (that I did work for, kinda specifically took computer science at a vocational high school for a reason and busted my ass to get certified for comptia A+ and c++) specifically for better health insurance so even then it wasn't provided for me.

>pull your boot straps loser
Oh boo fucking hoo. Like it's so impossible to work a shitty retail job for a few months and buy a beater. Nevermind actually driving it or PARKING it. People like you are beyond pathetic

it'll probably take 6 months of 2 hour lessons every week. i passed in november
