The Value money..

[Afflict]

A couple of friend and I were sitting descussing what the value of money is to them. We came up with alot of interestng theories it was quite interesting. To break it down we said whats the value of 10 bucks to you anyway.

It was interesting cause 10 bucks here is virtually nothing and gets spent without a second thought.

So I pose the question to you whats the value of 10 bucks to you? And what do you waste it on etc.

Australian, Canadian or US of A?
to me its worth, (in canadian) one meal from my mom, one set of clothes from the thrift store and one uber ancient computer game. soo... food, clothes and fun. not bad for ten bucks.

[Domino]

A cheap hooker if i look hard enough.

if i had £10 right now i'd probably find myself an original copy of Worms United (the SoldOut version, like all their other releases, has been raped: the Ocean intro movie and scenario are missing as is the commercial video) on ebay or maybe see if i can get a good VHS copy of the movie Hawks as it's never likely to be released on dvd (warner have now deleted it from their catalogue) although i really doubt i'd get it for under a tenner, failing that i'd take a look on play.com to see what movies they have on offer.

Ten bucks is going out to dinner at the pub.

Yum.

[Haddas]

Oh man... A tenner would be awesome to have. It's been ages since I had so much money. I'd buy a nice meal and a some lemonade.

[Nine Toes]

Although, to me, $10 would also be something that would normally be spent without a thought, it's feels like a lot of money to me at the moment, because I'm beyond broke.

10 bucks is my daily food budget. If I had an extra ten bucks to spend on food today, I would be a very, very happy man.

[BOYD1981]

my daily food budget right now is about... 80p a day, perhaps not even that much...

You live on porridge?

[Nikolas]

Bread: 40p
Rump Steak for two: 3 GBP
Ceasar Salad ready made: 1.50 GBP
Baby milk for a week: 5.96 GBP

There you go... A little more than 10 GBP and much mroe than 10$, but still enough for a whole fmaily to live hapily for a day!

[Renal Shutdown]

Six beers and 20 fags from my local off-license.
£9.15.

Tesco value or safeway bettabuy?



And do you find you end up just like, eating them... without any water?

[TheYak]

Weekday:
3 1/2 gallons of petrol (or driving to and from work each day). 

Weekend:
A vodka sour/gratuity to nurse for an hour at a local jazz club.

Or, more wisely,  I could grab a gallon of milk, loaf of bread, and a quarter pound of cheese.
