      "Uang segitu bisa beli hape malah"
      Ini kan ringkasan kata-kata kamu? Hape apa yang harganya 1 juta doang tidak ditambah dengan angka belakang yang lain? Contoh: 1 juta 99 ribu rupiah. Kalaupun dibawah 1 juta bakalan dapet yang kualitas rendah (lebih tepatnya super rendah)
      Kalau kita misalnya merantau di kota. Kost di kota minimal 600 ribu per bulan (ini harga udh dibanting jauh banget) sisa 400 ribu. Kamu yakin kuat pakai 10 ribu rupiah sehari untuk makan? Kalau sepuluh ribu mungkin kamu cuma bisa beli bubur dua kali sehari, belum ditambah minum.
      Nah kalau kita masuk ke kelas sosial tinggi. Uang 1 juta itu kecil banget. Pengeluaran orang-orang ini besar-besar. Seperti WiFi super cepat, makanan mewah, pembantu, alat pemuas hasrat, dan ditambah pajak. 1 juta bisa hilang hanya dalam sehari

    Indonesia may have lower value in money exchange but it's more developed than you thought. I'm from Philippines, and I've been to Indonesia, in Bali. The stuff are so cheap, and I like the handcrafted goods there.
