You want to see how bad things are, you wanna see just how much things actually cost?

The only way your gonna do that is to STOP PRICING THINGS IN DOLLARS. I mean who knows what that waste of a sheet paper is really worth? See for the past 3 years I price everything in silver.
Shit ain't cheap
See like today I had to get gas, even tho the screen told me it was $54, I didn't care about that, what I did care about is that it really cost me 3.5 oz of silver. Which is too much in my eyes.
Damus lunch was for you
So After I got some gas, I drove to Five guys to grab a burger, yes another burger.. my total was $13.79 or 9/10ths of an oz of silver, yeah tell me about it almost 1 oz of silver for a Hamburger. Shit aint cheap.
They've gotton way to much silver from me
Yep! You guessed it, I got the call from the better half with a SMALL list of things she needed. So after walking around with the zombies for 15 mins. I checked out and my total was $77.52 (for nothing really) but in real money it was 5.1 oz's of silver. It saddens me to think how much silver I ahve given walmart over the past 3 years.
Money well spent
Last stop was for me, ran in grabbed a pack of smokes and a 12 pk of Bud Light. For the low price of 1.2 oz's of silver. Then As I was sitting in my truck, I realized that just today I spent over 10 oz's of silver.
I know it sounds like a foolish game to play. Once you start playing you realize what things really cost and how much we blow everyday. Every now and then people need a wake up call, The time is now to stack, stack as fast as you can..
Hopefully this post will payout at least 0.50 oz of silver. 😉
Have a great Night, I got 12 COLD Bud Lights that need some attention.🍻🍺
@raybrockman
I price things in vacations. Like oh... my new fence is costing me three round trip tickets to Australia. Or, do I want this outfit or would I rather spend that money on an airplane ticket to California?
😂🤣
Now price those airline tickets to Silver 😁

What about #steem since we are all here getting rewards on #steem.
Like your post and the idea of moving away from the dollar.

Exactly! Been saying that for way too long and seriously bored with the lack of change.
Get rid of that $ sign on rewards and price it in STEEM. What sort of economy prices its goods in someone else's currency? What faith does that show in one's currency?
Also, and this is big, if priced in STEEM users may (or may not) notice that earnings in STEEM have been almost flat for the past 12 months - independent of market prices in $.
OK, I'll shut up again! But the thought needed airing :-)
That means I spent 560 ozs. Of silver on materials yesterday. Dam........
Yeah - don't DO THAT!!! It's really going to get you down, I'm afraid.
For me, I simply keep track of how much heavier my stack is growing, and how close I am to my ultimate goal of stacking 1,000 oz. of silver. Truth is, I'm closer to that goal than I thought I would ever be - but I'm still a long, long ways off. Even if I only get 1/2-way there, I'll be happy - because I know that, at the right time, it's going to help me buy my first house. So what if it takes another 5 or 10 years? It's the "American Dream," and I don't plan on taking out a huge mortgage loan to pay for it, either. I'm looking forward to making a down payment of at least 50% - hopefully I'll be able to just buy some place outright. Either way, my monthly expenses are going to be extremely manageable as compared to almost everyone else I know. 309 oz., and counting...
I can't do it. It's too depressing. I don't mind spending fiat, but my silver stack is sacred.
