Uber v/s Buying A Car

How many of you have dreamed of a chauffeur driven car where all you want is to travel comfortably to your destination?

In today’s world travelling takes up the major time and for the majority of the people “Time is Money”. The affordable way to utilize your time is by doing your minor work like sending emails or calling up clients, etc. You can hardly do this if you are travelling by train, bus or rickshaw. Car is an apt choice if you want to utilize your time efficiently.

Do you think buying a car is a good choice or do we have an alternative? Uber is an economical alternative choice for all those who choose to drive rather than using local modes of travelling like train or bus.
