Well, be more careful.
FUK U
Hahaha
I side with Caesar.
You can definitely survive on $20 food per week
Not sure if I would call it living though
@Hadrian You are living somebodies dream.
You can get enough calories with rice, beans, ramen etc but you'll develop nutrient deficiencies
There are always alternatives, they might not be as healthy as the more costly thing, but alternatives nonetheless.
There are good reasons why places where that's the norm have high rates of starvation, malnutrition and infant mortality
Hmm.....
Plus, $20 in India etc buys a lot more food than it would here
Well, that is probably because the indian currency is worth jackshit.
But the point still stands
Grocery stores have much higher markup too than the local bazaar
That is true, bazaars are usually just farmers, traders, scrappers and in some cases opium/poppy sellers.
Exactly
So it's much easier to live on $20 per week there than it is here
Farmers markets etc
Save a ton of money and we get a better product
Are you saying 20 ruppee's, or twenty US dollars in india?
@Odalman Yhea, I would assume farmers markets could get you better deals than local stores.
Dollars
That would be the equivalent of over 1200 ruppee's, which could probably feed you for over a week.
Grocery stores charge for the food, property, cashiers, shelf stockers, refrigeration, transportation, management, electricity etc
Grocery stores are based on convenience not necessarily saving money.
Here is an interesting form I found for the average living costs in india. https://www.numbeo.com/cost-of-living/country_result.jsp?country=India
As you can see, the prices are not very bad when you are converting them to the US dollar.
(But you have to take into account that most jobs in india will not pay you well at all.)
But god damn, you have to pay a ludicrous amount of money to even go to middle school or highschool.
@everyone any idea who this fucking kid is
Everyone is trying to figure it out
