I went in with my BIL on a cow. My FIL sold it to us and we had it butchered. I ended up with almost 200 pounds of meat for like $1300 I think. I got like 30 steaks out of it and 60 two pound bags of hamburger. I got six or seven roasts I think. I got a kind of small brisket too. It came out to be somewhere around 6.50 to 7.00 dollars a pound.

I go to McDonald’s and Burger King to eat, I’m on keto so I have to eat like this.

Cheeseburger from McDonald’s - don’t eat the bread Then stack Burger King nuggets on top and we may even add some honey mustard.You eat it like a meat taco with nuggets3000KRW for the cheeseburger and 1500KRW for the nuggets Not 20000KRW for a meal from a restaurant. I’m not paying 20000 for a shitty meal. 
Oh Wow!

A lot worse, the negative effects of the Iran war are lagging in some industries, expect prices to go higher with inflation getting worse this summer, boyos...

The Iran war was supposed to be quick and easy, its not going according to plan

I thought of that too , but the liberal government is confiscating all the guns as we speak . At the beginning it was assault style weapons ,but not it’s pretty much anything with gunpowder.
Manufacturers should have painted guns pink and rainbow colours , as black looks too intimidating to the Liberals

I can buy groceries but can't really afford to eat out often anymore. It's not worth it anyway. Quality and service has gone downhill.
