No I don't want to know which iPhone or what investment can be made. I've never really understood what the value of 1000USD is like what they mean to an American. Is it a small amount, is it a big amount? How long does it take to earn it? So tell me things like for how many months can you buy groceries with it, or eat out how many times?

A husband and travel partner if he’ll have me! 🤪🤩I can get over the way he pronounces his T’s.

No but I want to know what all can be done IN the USA😭😭 like for 1000rs here you can have a 2-3 person's dinner at a moderately good restaurant. A domestic flight to about 500km at 3-4k is considered a good deal. But I still won't understand if you tell me flight rates there coz I don't know if air travel is cheap or expensive there. I need to know what basic things can be bought.

You have to bargain shop for flights they change during the seasons

I would never waist a lot of money on food, unless it was trying something in another country that I’ve flown to.

Memories or clothes is what I would spend some leisure money on. Something that lasts and I enjoy.

Food is gone in an instant and I’d probably think it wasn’t worth the price 😩😆

$ 1000 can get you plenty. Where do you live?

I mean honestly, no amount of money is too big. I’ll take all I can get!

That's about 5-7 months of groceries for me

or

My car is paid off, but if I still had payments, that'd also be 2 months of car payments and 10 days of gas for work only.

or

I could go to In-N-Out Burger and get almost 280 double-doubles

or

10 blowjobs at my local redlight district. 20 blowjobs if I find all ugly ones

Okk the end of this so unexpected🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

That’s about 3-4 grocery trips to stock up for two people for at least 2 weeks time. I buy a lot of organic too and still don’t spend a lot I don’t think. Generally my very full basket for two costs about $ 250-300.

And probably half of my rent with utilities for my 2/1 apartment.

$ 1000 is decent but you couldn't live for long off of it.

Example-I spend $ 1000 monthly on groceries for a family of 3

A decent hotel room runs minimum $ 150 per night and much more than that in tourist areas

Dinner for two in a chain type restaurant is $ 100

What specifically were you trying to do with $ 1000? Vacation? Move here? A night out?

Oh my god, Mr. 88, that sounds incredible! But there is a rumor that in a certain social club near my place you can talk to 50 women about the weather and everything you like for just ridiculously cheap and lousy 1000 € and I mean talking about everything you want. 🙂

Sounds like a fancy gentlemen's club. For a 1000€ it better come with some party favors gift bags lol

I couldn't imagine spending that kind of money to have a conversation though lol

I guess what I meant was that you can talk to 50 women in a period of time for that amount of money, so not in the same night. All you get is a beer though which you have to pay for as well. ^^

that's what my married friends have told me

Depends on how young you are. If you're 25, it's a relatively nice sum of money to pay a few bills.

If you're over 40, it's a pretty insignificant sum, but you can always use an extra thousand.
