A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions
Rules: (interactive)
1) Be nice and; have fun
Doxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them
2) All posts must end with a '?'
This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?
3) No spam
Please do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.
4) NSFW is okay, within reason
Just remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com.
NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].
5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions.

6) No US Politics.
Please don't post about current US Politics. If you need to do this, try !politicaldiscussion@lemmy.world or !uspolitics@lemmy.world
7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.
8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.

Eating out. 60% of my hourly wage for a beer and a meal was acceptable but it's well over 100% now.
Ramen.
like...instant ramen or actual ramen? Isn't a bag of top ramen still like 50 cents?

Everything
all sorts of thing. I used to be the type of big money person that bought fast food and named brand soda in a can. also electronics was a bit of a thought about if to buy or not but not something expected to break the bank. like I would not buy it all willy nilly but I generally got something if I thought I would use it.
Soy yogurt for some reason got expensive. No idea why.
Ardebg Alligator.
Had it in a bar on a night out, and was was phenomenal. It was expensive per shot, but I feel we cleaned them out.
It was really really good
Wanted to buy it, was £150 a bottle. Way too much for a whisky.
Finally had some disposable income, £150 for a bottle between friends seemed alright... Now it's £250.
Got to the point where a good memory, nice whisky and friends is worth £250... And its £400 per bottle.
Now it's £500 per bottle, still not worth it.
So many good whiskies for less than £100.
It's not an "investment" whiskey at all. That's the span of 15 years or so. Maybe 500% net over 15 years is a good investment, I don't think so.
One of my mates got married recently, would've been a great opportunity to buy a bottle.
Kinda wish I had... but I also painted his house, helped with a TON of DIY stuff, and a bunch of wedding stuff.
The actual on-the-day-stuff was "just turn up" as far as I was concerned.
One day, the price of Ardbeg Alligator will match disposable income and the occasion.
Till then, I'm sure it will keep increasing beyond my means & commitment
