I think many of the posters on this topic are looking at their own life style. Bars and girls most days. Obviously this guy is not like that and you could live quite well on the money if you really wanted to.

   Prostitution is cheaper in other Countries 

Thailand is similar to UK prices 


How would you know?

 

According to your past posts you don’t take part in that behavior.

 

Certainly hope you’re not a hypocrite.  The majority of leftists are.

   For the 3 rd time of asking : Why have you stated that I am a lefty and anti Trump ?

   What is the reason for that ?

3.  What does Bitcoin have to do with the discussion?

   Replying saying that I am strange .

   Just because I know the price of something , doesn't mean I purchase it

BTW,  You would be wasting your time trying to find any left wing anti trump posts by me, you were mistaken about that
