How much do you make?
>>
Lunch is a necessity
Games are a luxury

But then again, a 10$ lunch is a luxury.
>>
Because you're either an idiot or a fatfuck. Maybe both.

$10 feeds me for a week.

Because food is a recurrent physical need, vidya is optional, and you probably have a backlog regardless.

I can't bring myself to spend 40 bucks on certain games, but I'll easily drop 200 dollars on boots I know I'll need for my work.

Honestly 10 bucks a day on lunch is bad. Go to the grocery store on payday if you have a fridge, you'll save a shit ton in the long run.

Hell 5 a day could get you an MRE, not like you enjoy your lunch regardless probably.

This

I'm cheap as shit when it comes to video games. but video games are FUN, fun shouldnt cost me my life.

Plus i have way too many video games anyways

>10 feeds me for a week

Ramen and assorted spices? Tell me your sorcery if your not coupon'ing. LIke maybe it's an Amerifat thing but 10 dollars can't cop me for a week with 3 meals a day.

>Spend 10 bucks on lunch everyday
Buy bread, cheese, meat, and a bag of apples. That's like, 20 bucks and it'll fill you up for at least a week.
>>
>>321487813
>$10 on lunch

Outside of making my own food, I never spend more than $5 on lunch. go to a dang dunkins and get a tuna sandwich
>>
>>321488201
I did this with buying 5lb sacks of potatoes and using fast food condiments. It's not fun, but you will sustain life.
>>
>>321487813
The hell do you eat? Lobster?

If you think 10 dollars for lunch isnt cheap you must live in a really underdeveloped area.

fuck OP I have been spending $10~ on lunch for the past two months and looked at my bank account and I was horrified

I could have bought a whole new graphics card or something instead of all that shitty food

Needless to say I'm not doing that anymore

>spending money on games

what games?

i use all my vidya money for nice lunches and gourmet coffee 'cause there's nothing i want to buy vidya wise right now
>>
>>321488538
Or not be an amerifat who needs 2 full meals minimum to qualify as lunch.
>>
>>321488201
I imagine $10 for a weeks worth of lunch is possible. Just don't expect variety in your lunch.
>>
>>321488201
$10 will get your essentials like potatoes, rice, beans and those little flavor packets. It's possible. But it's still very difficult to manage.
$20 a week is more realistic to eat cheap and still have energy.
$40 a week is really all you need to eat well. Anything more is either convenience, luxury, or indulgence.

Have fat fags surpassed vegans for obnoxiousness?

This post made me legit laugh out loud. I, too, have many days where I sustain life with potatoes.

I have 550 games in my steam library and a 400+ physical backlog, yet I buy myself a new pair of $50 sneakers once every two years. Priorities!
>>
>>321489496
Not in Poland.

I could get mostly 4 packs rice so about 1 kg of rice for 10$.

I imagine it's worse where you have euros.

>start actually buying groceries and cooking my own food

I just want to know what the fuck is in fast food to make it that much worse. I'm still eating the same stuff just I make it now, yet I feel 1000x better.
>>
>>321490568
Fast food isn't real. That's the difference. It's almost 100% filler, that's why it's so cheap.
>>
>>321490568
preservatives
sugar
starch
>>
>>321487813
Go to McDonald's for one day, get a small fries, drink, and something cheap like a chicken sandwich, and spend the $5 you saved on a game.
>>
>>321490568
The modern food industry is centered around constructing nearly non-digestible things and tricking people into thinking they're still food. You usually can't expect any pre-processed food to actually be what it says on the package.

>spending 10$ for one meal
Learn to make food, its way fucking cheaper and the leftover money can be used for games easily.
>>
How much do you faggots eat and what do you eat to spend 9 kg of potatoes/flour/ per lunch. 2 if counting herbs/vegetables/jam.

Post your lunch OP i want to know
>>
What are some good calorie dense meals, I need to stop buying subs and start actually making my lunch everyday.
>>
>>321492263
any pasta, pancakes, pies, potatoes with stuff all over them.

Majority of them take about half an hour to prepare if you are lazy or longer if you want to do stuff right and love shitposting here so much.
>>
>not just eating your own cum

also homemade pizzas are miracle of the universe and your bros/collegues will respect you

Do you go out to eat at fast food places?

You won't be in 10 years if you even last that long

>>321493830
>Do you go out to eat at fast food places?
I usually eat out at dinners or small restaurants. I don't really enjoy fast food. My diet is actually good but the nonstop red bulls and smoking is what is going to kill me, I think.

You might want to stop then.
