The Iranians and Kazakh say they are Uzbek, but if they cant speak Russian you know they are Iranians as opposed to Kazakhs, who can. Sort of like the Romanian girls in FKKs, they say they are Italian. Turks speak German, those are rare gems, but quite tasty. Turks dont speak Russian.

The only stipulation on my income is that I am not allowed to get married. My income is $1300.00 a month. $1500 if you count the interest on my savings account and treasury bonds. I tend to be a homebody and I do not like drinking, going to clubs or being around people often. I usually sleep all day and play video games all night. I will work on occasion mainly because I get bored and need excitement. My idea of socializing is to go to the local Chinese or Russian restaurant to practice Chinese or Russian. I tend to cook my meals at home whenever possible. I like making homemade pizzas, bread, cakes, pastries, sodas, candy, and soap. Once a month I might go to a bar for an hour or two. Then I get bored and go home. when i was with my girlfriend I would take her out places whenever she would insist.
For the most part, my bills would be rent, utilities, food, and the internet. The main addiction I have is milk. I get irritable if I have not drunk at least a liter of milk in the morning.

For me in PP
Rent $200 includes internet
power with Aircon 24/7 $70 p/m
City golf 5 days a week $200p/m
Golf 2 times a month $200p/m
Box office on Friday with 3 craft beers and 3 cans $60/pm
Daily 10 Beers $390 p/m
Scotch and gin for nightcaps 6 litres @$10 each $60 p/m
Breakfast $30pm (bacon and eggs etc at home)
Daily meal out @ $7 a day $210
Visa $25pm

Total $1460 p/m

cook at home and drink less alcohol than I do (not easy in PP) and you will save $400 on this easily. Dont play golf, save an additional$400 p/m, (but have no reason to live).

Cost of my girlfriend ... don't ask.

Milk costs $2 to $3 per liter
