Default Re: I weep for you all

I've been living in England for almost 3 years now (with the USAF) and it is an eternal struggle. I don't really know how to explain it, but I guess if you don't make the conversion from pounds to dollars you will notice that the numbers are about the same. For example a shirt that sells for $20 in the states usually costs 20 pounds here. If you earn pounds and do not have to make the conversion to dollars things don't seem so expensive in your head. Just a bit of insight.
