It reminds me of this time I learned for the first time about heated driveways so I was talking to my coworker and friend about how if I was a multimillionaire, I would have one of those things and I would never have to shovel snow again. He replied by saying I don't understand how being a multimillionaire works.
I live in a country where it basically never snows and until I got to the 'never have to shovel snow again' part of your comment I was so confused about why someone would want a heated driveway. I was thinking 'do rich people like to walk around barefoot outside their home or something?'.
So anyway, maybe the cheaper solution to your snow problem is to move here to Ireland :D
I don't get it. Is it because rich people don't need heated driveways because they hire people to shovel snow? Evidently I don't understand either :D
