 May I ask you something?

Why are you buying 8 bags of groceries at a time? Especially in these times??? You're better off buying one steak per day. You'll freeze most of that meat for the entire month and lose on some potential bitcoin gainz...

Of course, buying 1 steak every day means you gotta absorb the red days as well, but on the long run, there is a lot more green days, so keeping your sats in your wallet would be much more profitable than keeping it in your freezer.

I'm not saying buying groceries for the month is bad. In fact I believe it's a good strategy... When we are near the end of a halving. But right now. With the supply shock coming, I would keep my value in my cold wallet, not in my freezer.

You once said on your podcast that you try to eat mainly bacon meat and eggs, I'll assume you do carnivore.

In my contry a carnivore grocery for the month is around 2M sats
I say that costed 1M sats 
 Ok 1M may be alot 😄😄😄

500k 
 You were closer the first time, but a little over. 🤣

 That's insanity but no surprise and I should have know it would be mostly animal products and not veggies (usually cheaper than fruit). What a crazy time we are in. 
 This is about two weeks worth of food.  
 Oh my, ok... that costed a lot then

 OUR WINNER IS SER SLEEPY!! 🔥 🎉  with a guess of $527.36
 @𝓢𝓮𝓻 𝓢𝓵𝓮𝓮𝓹𝔂

The total was, in fact, $557.10 for 8 bags of groceries, about two weeks supply of real food. (no boxes of seed oils or that crap)

Basically fruit (Rad eats a ton of fruit), steak, sausage, bacon, eggs, yogurt, sweet potatoes, and some other assorted items.

Thanks for playing "FIAT SUCKS! But How Much Exactly?" 🤣

 My God... the amounts that are between 200 and 500 USD are all of my monthly teacher salary... 1) if it is worth 500 usd I hope it lasts me the whole month, I don't need clothes, medicine or transportation 2) difficult to do the math but I guess it's about $320 usd 3) I hope BTC will soon be so widespread and used that we can talk about the same price regardless of where we are in the world.

 Reflexionando sobre el juego propuesto por @guyswan, sobre el costo de 8 bolsas de comestibles llegué a tristes conclusiones

nostr:note1nu6t8n6hs6hns44vv4fe6zagxehete78kneyccau7k2z25vpq7wqzt00uv

Dios mio... las cantidades que estan entre 200 y 500 usd son todo mi salario mensual de maestra... 1) si vale 500 usd espero que me dure todo el mes, no necesito ropa, ni medicinas ni transporte 2) es difícil hacer los cálculos, pero supongo que son alrededor de $ 320 usd 3) Espero que BTC pronto esté tan extendido y utilizado que podamos hablar del mismo precio independientemente de dónde estemos en el mundo.

 More information needed to make accurate comparisons 

1. Location 
2. What day purchased? 
3. Time : location 
4. Dimensions of the bags 💼 
5. Combined with global economy 
6. Were you hungry 
7. Mental state of shopper 
8. Variables matter 

Always have 

Simple math is easy when one gateway chooses to use all information

 Is this a flex? .. "Look at what I can afford!" .. 😒

It cost too much, I know that for certain. 
 Exactly right, I’m showing how expensive my 8 bags of groceries were because of how cool I am cuz I can afford them… 🥴 
 a flex would not be someone pointing out the problems with our gov and economy but someone living on food stamps, driving a nicer car to the store, buying even more groceries at said store and not having to lift a finger to earn any of it. Broken system. not guessing the amount spent on said groceries but I feel you man. My grocery bill in the last few years has climbed to more per week than I used to spend per month, yet while I am out trying to figure out how to offset it via work or investments, the gov is taking 1/3 of all I work for to give to to those not willing to do the same. Sorry for the rant man. Satori slightly got under my skin with that flex comment.  
 Sooo .. it's not a flex .. 
 Nice .. 😎🤙🏼
