not a huge economic loss. that’s two drinks at a bar, our four coffees at starbucks.
people are spending a lot more than that other places. I have known plenty of people who are pay $2400-3000 a year on gym memberships they never use, because they had to get on to a ‘good gym with a steam room’ or something utterly absurd like that. who also whine about how broke they are and how expensive everything is… the same folks who ask you why you don’t have the newest iphone that just came out and talk about how ‘old’ their 1 year old phone is.
or just the habit of eating out a few times a week, will easily run you $300 a month or more.
$20 for two drinks at the bar? Must be some cheap drinks, hell I haven’t seen cocktails under $15 in a couple of years now, and craft beer pints are $10+. Wild how much prices have ramped up, but our paychecks sure haven’t.
cocktails are expensive because they take time to make. $15 cocktails is pretty cheap for me, where I am they are often closer to $20 unless you’re at a dive bar. $10 is a domestic beer or a house wine, which is what most folks drink when they go out.
Christ, where do you live? I’m in one of the top cost of living areas in the US, but even around here a pint is about $8, cocktails about $14±2, and a draft craft about $11. (Unless you know the spots that have cheap beer like the one place that has $3 Budweiser.)
which is 20 a month.
