The liter of super at 2 euros? Obvious according to the CEO of Total! This is the news of the day, the rise in the price of oil will not stop and will even continue to rise in the future.
This is a subject that regularly comes to the fore and remains a concern for the majority of French people, the price of gasoline . For several years, the price at the pump has reached record highs due to soaring oil prices. And it's not over...
On average at 79 dollars during 2010, the price of a barrel of oil is now around 120 dollars . Why ? The fact that some of the major producing countries have recently flared up and the current tension are all factors explaining this phenomenon.
The CEO of Total explains this morning that prices will only increase , it is obvious according to him. According to him, the symbolic milestone of 2 euros for a liter of super will be crossed, that's for sure... It only remains to know WHEN!
Don't wait for the 2 euros per liter to be reached and follow our advice now to avoid suffering this uncontrolled rise... and uncontrollable.
We talked about it a few days ago, it's time to react to the various problems posed by this irreversible price surge .
First of all from an economic point of view, this inevitable increase will be very difficult to amortize for a large number of French people. It is therefore important to react.
To calculate the average fuel budget of a French person today , take the current price of a liter of super at the pump:it is around 1.40 euros. A full tank representing an average of 50 liters and allowing you to last 2 weeks thus represents a cost per month equal to:(1.40x50) x2 =140, i.e. 140x12 =1680 euros.
Let's repeat this same calculation for a price per liter equal to 2 euros:(2x50) x2 =200 x12 =2400 euros.
While a gasoline budget currently amounts to 1680 euros, it will amount to at least 2400 euros in the near future, i.e. an increase of 720 euros !
At this price, it is better to organize differently, if possible of course, and take new measures aimed at saving smart on a daily basis.
We advise you to favor public transport, walking or cycling for short distances.
Whether it's the price of a yearly subscription or the purchase of a bike, the cost amounts to a maximum of 500 euros, so between 1000 and 1900 euros in savings at the end of the year ! Not to mention the price of the car...
For those who have no other choice, it is always possible to know how to reduce fuel consumption in a sustainable way through simple gestures.
Discovering eco-driving, knowing how to change gears and brake at the right time, or even parking your car in the shade are all useful skills to save on your everyday fuel-related expenses.
