Too much snow... I only managed to shovel half my driveway to just free up one car. I already have a newborn I'm dealing with, don't got the energy for this too..

Typical gongshow of bad drivers with vehicles that have no winter tires on them.
This is what my neighbour Jimmy and I saw yesterday morning at 9:30am when we were shovelling snow out in front of our houses:
One idiot in a black SUV, just stopped their vehicle in front of my house. Another driver in a Honda accord yelled at him "Hey buddy, learn how to drive!!!" with his window down haha. Honda driver proceeds to go into reverse.
Maybe the SUV was afraid to drive up a small hill in front of him with his all season tires? hahahah
Two Chinese drivers in SUVS did not make it up the small hill in my hood. Wheels spinning. I guess they cannot make it for early dim sum at a nearby restaurant.
Was very good, thanks to Hondaracer for vouching for the place in an earlier thread.
We got the family style 4 course, 9 item dinner. Certainly a "loosen belt" type of dinner.
The only thing I wasn't terribly fond of was the Baby Back ribs, but my standards for ribs are extremely high since I smoke my own. Oven baked ribs just can't compete.
I need to figure out a way to heat my front stairs
I feel like saltbae everyday salting the fucking stairs knowing the salt disappears within 12 hours.

Private choppers are much more expensive than that, I've looked into getting my licence locally, the hourly was 550$-700$/hr for a Cabri G2 or R22. Double it for a "decent" bigger helicopter...
Unless you buy the heli and hire a desperate new pilot for 8$/hr. (Main reason preventing me from getting the licence, slave labour for first 1-2 years after going 80k in debt)
350 was in USD. So, we are not far from the $550 mark. But seriously though, for people making millions in a year, even just a million a year and assuming they can write off as an expense, at 550 a day, 20days a month and 12mth a year, that's just $132000. The time saving say for a person traveling from somewhere west shore (the area across the pond from Seattle) to Seattle or Bellevue where the straight line distance is something like 10km, it makes quite a bit of sense.
Heck, I'd do it if that means cutting my daily commute from 3hrs to within an hour. 10% of total income in travel expense doesn't sound too far-fetched even for a normal person considering price of gas/car.
Only peasants need private helicopters for travel ... get your own hover drone bruh ... Just take out a bigger life insurance policy. YOLO. I'll wait till Costco carries this.
but then replacing the steps are like 120 each for wood alone
