<prompt> Human: Im not sure if this is the right place to put this, but my parents recently cut me off because I didnt enjoy my first semester of college and want to wait a bit. I just got a job bussing at a good restaurant and for a while shelter and housing wont be a problem as my friends have told me I can stay with them for as long as I need to. I have no car but I have a bike that I am using to get to work. I am wondering how long I should wait to get a car, because that will be endlessly helpful if I need to pick up a second job. Im also not sure how to go about the process of getting one, and what car I should get. Any advice for me? Thank you in advance!Edit: forgot to mention that Im borrowing a kind brothers bike until he goes back to school.  <response>: Without knowing how much money you bring in or what your expenses are its hard to advise.Cars are expensive and I would consider other possibilities, like the bus. Your bike solution is effective and working. Perhaps you can look for a second or more stable job near your first one. Or you can be a solid employee and ask for more hours and gun for promotions. If you are good bussing tables you can ask to be trained as waitstaff, they probably make better money.I can give tons of advice that may be irrelevant to your particular situation, but I think my most useful advice is to consider if you really need a car. You are managing to do ok without that expense.
