So don't give someone shit for wanting to experience elements of human culture. It belongs to everybody.

It's less than that. The BMW i3 has a 22 kWh battery, and only under the most deal circumstances are you ever going to charge the whole battery every day, which will at most be about $2/day.
More realistically, my Leaf, which we drive more than the national average - and which has a battery size and MPGe almost identical to the current BMW i3 - uses about $25/mo in electricity, which you could presumably charge using this system if things went well.
[Or, you could offset residential electricity to the same $25, since your total used electricity is mostly fungible.]
You get more flexibility with AT&T and T-Mo, since they're GSM networks, and you're much more likely to have a phone compatible with the rest of the planet.
Carrying more than $100,000 in cash without a approval(or was it simple notification? or declared reason?) is illegal, though.
Citation needed.
Good luck though, because you're full of shit.
Similarly, you can gladly take more than $10k out of the country.
There is no limit on the total amount of money or monetary instruments that may be brought into or taken out of the United States. However, if you transport or cause to be transported, more than $10,000 in monetary instruments on any occasion into or out of the United States, or if you receive more than that amount, in behalf of someone else and then transport it, you must file a Customs Form 4790 with U.S. Customs.
...and, in almost every case, carrying large amounts of cash has little to no consequence.
I visit the WSOP every year, and while they accept wire transfers at the Rio cage, nearly every player brings cash -- and not just the main event players. There's thousands of people like myself playing smaller events who have thousands of dollars in cash on them at and en route to the WSOP every year.
Care to tell us the rest of the story that was worth mentioning "just some beer in the back?"
If their business plan was to run Coors to the east coast, it's been done already...
That's easy to fix : put water meters at every house and make people pay per-gallon. You'll see people fixing their plumbing the day right after they receive the first bill
WUT?
Apartments and (some) condos likely pay water as part of their rent/HOA, but pretty much everyone else in this country pays a water bill.
I'm sure that among 420 Wireless (who donates to cannabis legalization), Cricket Wireless, Aio Wireless, AirevoiceWirelee, Black Wireless, Consumer Cellular, Divvy, GHz Cellular, good2GO Mobile, H2O Wireless, Jolt Mobile, KDDI Mobile SIM card plan, NET10 Wireless, Pure Talk USA, Red Pocket Mobile, SIM Shalom Mobile, SkyView Wireless, Straight Talk, or UTW Mobile who are all AT&T virtual network operators you can find a plan cheaper than $45/mo.
I looked at ONE site, and Net10 offers unlimited (throttled after 500m) Talk, Text, Data at $40/mo -- exactly what the OP posted, and BYOD.

You can support at least two numbers using Google Voice, your own number and your GV number.
Also, dual SIM phones are readily available, so that ups you to four numbers, if you use GV.
Five numbers is going to require some sort of VoiP solution on the device as well.
Sure, it's a problem getting a big game funded if you don't have a proven revenue model to present to your investors, but that's not unique to games.
"Gee, I'm sure if you just fronted me the money to make this, we'd absolutely make some money back because it'll be awesome, I promise!"
Publishers have limited resources, so they bet on what's making them money -- microtransactions.
Plenty of good games have a fixed one-time purchase price. Nobody is stopping you from making the next Super Hexagon.

Exactly one, as long as it's the one that someone important over there surfs.
The for-sale-now i3 has a 22 kWh battery, and costs $42k.
Solar continues to crop up in Arizona (and elsewhere). One of the buildings at my current employer has the entire parking lot covered as well.
But why is it taking so long? It's not a simple proposition.
The real question is, "Over a 10 or 20 year span, will waiting two years for 2016's solar system be a better investment than buying 2014's solar now?"
I show the i3 with a 22 kWh battery - roughly the same as the Leaf.

Amway, that's $300/year max.
I'm pretty dumb. Can you come help me do the oil and coolant change in my Leaf?
I'll be modded into oblivion, but...
Why are you entitled to watch this, and have you considered the alternative of NOT watching it?

The City thinks, in short, that parking is ugly, and ruins the character of the city.

No SIM at Verizon mostly likely, and they're sort of jerks about what devices you can use on BYOD, but yeah... ...that's exactly what you do.

Great business minds!
Was step one of the business plan: "Withdraw every penny of their life savings in cash in order to transport it cross country by car?"
