  • I’m one of the younger millennials (I think?).

    I never carry cash unless I have to (for some reason dependent on where I’m going). I primarily use my phone to make payments, and I don’t have a traditional wallet, but I do have a slim card-holder that carries my debit card, driving licence and one or two other important cards.

    Take that for what you will, I guess!

    I own a pair of Porta Pros as daily drivers. I also have a pair of Ananda’s that I run through a BTR7 (not super flashy but more than your average person’s setup).

    I would say the average person doesn’t need more than a pair of Porta Pros. They’re absolutely fine 😅





  • New cars are ludicrously expensive, especially EVs.

    The most I can afford to spend on a car is maybe £14K, and that’s under the proviso that about £4K of that is my own money and the rest is a loan to be paid off over about 6 or 7 years.

    So yeah, I’m going secondhand ICE with about 50K miles on the clock and praying it doesn’t die before the loan is paid off (and preferably longer still so I can save a bit more towards the next one).

    I’m all for EVs, but they’ve got to bring the price down, and they’ve got to get the batteries to last long enough for the secondhand market to be viable.
