Marriage scales really well (only need one toaster, one trash can, one TV, you can cook together, etc.), but some things grow nearly linearly.
You can't just buy one steak and cut it into smaller and smaller pieces, for the number of people at the table. You have to multiply the steaks. And if you have a hungry, sporty teenager or two, you probably need to add a steak for good luck.
Yep and I only buy organic meats and produce which cost triple the amount of the normal amount.
Same. More regional than organic (although that's often the same), but like... damn. 🙈
1 kg of fresh strawberries 🍓 for nearly €14.
6 eggs for €2.
Raw milk for €1
Local flour for €1
That homebaked strawberry cake costed €18 and that whole thing was gone in about 15 minutes.
Now, imagine you have 5 kids. You'd bake 2 cakes!
That sounds cheaper than what I pay so that’s great!
But yes another reason I’m glad I only have one child.
People act like kids are for free. Kids scale well, but costs still increase with each one.
People with lots of kids tend to be very wealthy or very poor.
The € is still quite strong, so the worst inflation hasn't hit us yet.
