You're right though, I think for a majority of people not wanting to spend the $20 is more out of being cheap and having the mindset that watching sc/sc2 is something that should be free. I worked as a waiter over the summer and on average I made about $12/hour counting hourly wage+tips. At the restaurant where I worked $20 would cover 2 of the cheaper entrees + 2 margaritas (only $1.99 each!!) But that would run up to about exactly $20 so you'd need more to tip me or I'd find you.... | ||

It's about 3 big Mc Donald's combos Note to self: If in Argentina, drink beer for calories instead of going to McDonalds.

... I must say, Britain's £ has taken such a huge drop in value. I remember a time when for £13 I could get a steak from a classy restaurant, a cinema ticket and then I could also get a taxi home... Nowadays £13 barely buys anything. :/ | ||

$19.41 will get you 1.8 movie tickets here( or 1.4 for a 3D movie). $19.41 will get you about 2.5 meals at McDonald's. $19.41 will get you the cheapest thing at a decent restaurant. $19.41 will get you 1.25 X-Large pizzas (or 1.58 Large). $19.41 will get you about 12 0.33L beer bottles. Shit is expensive.  | ||

$20 USD in Australia will get you 1 pack of 20s smoke and a coke or 1 25s smoke :/ Or it could feed a person for two days depending on where you shop. Minimal wage don't make sense here. You get fucking secretaries and administration staff that takes home 50K a year while skilled professionals sometimes barely making minimal wage -_- | ||

standard salary = £5.80/hour ($9/hour) $20 = £12.80 2x movie ticket coke & popcorn at cinema = £6.50 2.3 mcdonalds 8 cans of beer = £7.50 2 really shit british pizzas a bus to work/school and back (depending where you live, without bus pass) = £7 150g of sliced ham = £2 iirc 2 litres of milk = £1.10 or £1.80 depending where you live i wished people posted their standard/minimum wages too, it makes it more relevent to show their actual standard of living rather than a hypothetical one  | ||
