Silly things poor people spend their money on

How does sushi do that?
I usually need 4 rolls to satisfied my hunger.

 

I’d say so. White rice, no fibre. I skip the sushi bar and head for a chicken kebab with salad, tabouli and hommus. Keeps me full until next meal.

 

Have to be pizza and pasta if this is the goal. Chinese/Japanese food never keep up maybe why most of them are so slim and skinny...

 

I don't think so - plenty of Asian eat rice as their main staple diet.
You don't see anyone starving after?
Body builder eat this for bulking which I follow - Chicken, broccoli and white rice.
I can tell you I am not hungry after consuming enough in 1 sitting.

 

Nah - I get brown rice sushi, sushimi and miso soup. Yum!!!

 

Same as owning horses.

 

don't the experts say, clean proteins such as chicken breast keep you full for longer whilst bad processed carbs such as pizzas you feel hungry quickly?

well, if I have a grilled chicken breast im usually hungry in about 20 mins, but if i have a pizza, im satisfied for hours

 

If you look at my avatar pick you will see that I am qualified to comment your above comment.
Body builder will not eat normal white rice. Brown rice ok. If white rice you can go basmati white rice. White rice is high GI. Better of having sweet potatoes rather than rice.

Thats a myth. For best results have chicken breast on your pizza. This covers all essential food groups.

Unless you have some carbs with your protein, you will feel hungry again fairly quickly.

With the lockdown and no gym right now I have replaced my lean proteins with plenty of chocolate to help me get through lockdown.

Speaking of silly things to spend money on, I’m going to buy me a treadmill so I don’t put on 10kg during this lockdown. And in the spirit of silly spending I am looking at fang dangle commercial grade units. I like bells and whistles.

 

Pokies. Once upon a time in my career, i had to put a research paper together about gambling and especially pokies. The most of the people, who plays pokies are the one's that do not have money to lose. They generally belong to the lower socio-economic group.

 

Nice pickup!

Came close a few times on the track, ended up writing it off going around a roundabout, paid 4k to salvage it from the insurance co and sold it to someone in the car club, and bought a LEXUS

 

What have I learnt from this thread…

Poor people should not

drink alcohol
Smoke cigarettes
Go to the pokies
eat junk food
Join a gym
Use Road Tolls
Buy new phones


Ok, I don’t think poor people should have any joy in their life, so no pets for poor people

 

there goes my saturday night

 

Followed by tattoo removal a few years later.

 

The ones in red should surely apply to anyone?

 

In Red - you just consider it as seldom treat.
Get a grip people. "clutching at my straw"

 

Looking back, it's amazing what you will do to "save a dollar" to meet the mortgage
I once burned the old larthen plaster slats in a back yard hole to cook (chuck steak with potatoes as a once a week treat ) .
Sure I was past the bread and vegimite stage (no butter), but wasnt up to spending money on more than the cost of a can of baked beans for dinner
Looking back, I'm now used to an ensuite (V's the outdoor toilet & shower) and enjoy the occasional takeaway (along with my now "flash lifestyle") that I couldn't afford otherwise

 

You left out alcohol

 

Alcohol in moderation doesn't seem to be necessarily bad for you.
Weird thing is, since covid started, I've maybe had 30 beers max, so my consumer has decreased quite a bit.
