Officially a millionaire by the age of 22 !

So I recently got paid and I can officially say Im a MILLIONAIRE (by the age of 22).... millionaire in Colombian Pesos that is.

The thing about living in Colombia, is that you feel really rich and everything seems really expensive, because their currency is in thousands .... but in reality, everything is pretty cheap.

For example...

- A beer costs $1,500 pesos but is actually 75 cents. FTW !
- my average grocery bill is around $50,000 pesos... which is about $25 dollars
- my rent is $500,000 pesos .... which is only $250 a month. :)

The domination of their currency is as follows:


- 50 pesos
- 100 pesos
- 200 pesos
- 500 pesos
- 1,000 pesos
- 2,000 pesos
- 5,000 pesos
- 10,000 pesos
- 20,000 pesos
- 50,000 pesos
