minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink19•1 day agoI bought lunch for my team of five and it came to $75 with tip. Fuck me. This was like basic sandwiches, chips, and a soda. Next time, I’ll just bring them over to my house and make steaks for everybody for the same price.
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink11•1 day agoOne thing people don’t realize is how cheap luxuries used to be. When the average salary was about $5,000, you could get a top of the line Cadillac or a Jaguar for $6,000. Today the average is about $60,000 and supercars are in the million dollar range. School kids used to be able to buy courtside seats for a game, or see a Broadway show. Heck, a mocvie and a pizza out used to be a cheap date, now it can run a couple $100
