How does one live on $3/day for food?

 

[Flying Illini]

food is only $100 a month?! That looks like the budget I made for myself when I started college...then my dad laughed in my face. I now know why. Good luck living on $3 a day.

I live with my parents, so yeah. The $100 acounts for going to Wendys durring my lunch break every day. I could afford to live on my own, but I wouldn't be able to fly without working 2 fulltime jobs....

Pack your lunch, you are now $100 ahead every month.

An old slogan I saw read:
"I felt bad because I had no shoes,
Then I saw a man with no feet"

I think I'm going to start categorizing flight instruction as "tool payments", as I function as a tool and pay for the privilege. How's that for whining?

Hey Una, look at the bright side! When you got 800 hours, you'll meet the insurance mins for some dropzone and you'll get to fly for free!
