- Thank you to the one friend who sent some cash.
- Thank you to my dad for sending me $20.
- Cash: MXN$2405
- PayPal: US$45.72
- Lodging: paid through the morning of Monday 27 March 2017
- Food: sufficient until Monday 27 March 2017
- Medicine: need to buy alprazolam in four to seven days, MXN$563.50. I’m already rationing it, which as I explained in a previous post, is not good.
- Lodging: to lower my lodging cost, I must have enough cash to prepay for a month plus a deposit. I don’t have that. This is the problem I have mentioned over the years: poverty is expensive. Also, as I (partially) explained in the last post, one of the hidden costs of improper lodging is stress from noise, which lowers my ability to fix my life.
- Food: without lodging that has a refrigerator and kitchen, my food costs go up and my diet gets worse. Again, poverty is expensive.
- Some other one-time costs, without explanation:
- Gloves
- Underwear
- Fix sleeping bag
- Remove tumor on my chest
- Substantial dental care
- Possibly broken finger
- Glasses
- Long term gastrointestinal problems that new technology might cure
- Fine from Mexican government for overstaying my visa
- Exchange rate: it was above 20 pesos per dollar. My most recent posts about my budget assumed 19.50 pesos per dollar, but the exchange rate is not moving in my favor: today it’s 19 pesos per dollar.
You can send me $0.99 per day.
