340,000 people in TORONTO had to use food banks last month

I bought ten of Uncle Ben's rice (the ones that heat up in the microwave) that was on clearance for 94 cents each and donated to the food bank.

Let's be sure we are aligned to global politically correct efforts here. The product is now called Ben's Original Rice, a name change that was made to ensure no one felt targeted/triggered by 'rice-ial prejudices' at the grocery store.

You think many escorts after accounting for ALL overhead (mine is usually around 25-35% over the years) profit MORE than 166,667. Client math is always amusing.

Anyway, $166,667 profit after every last cent of overhead is paid (including outlandish corporate salaries and bonuses) is actually pretty good. Imagine thinking people would continue investing in a company if they didn't think their ROI was decent lol

To be fair, I was extrapolating, but I know two such ladies because I've done their taxes for them. If I personally know two, than there is almost certainly quite a few more just in Toronto, and many more besides in other cities.
Even assuming the top end of your figure (35%), that means an escort would have to gross just over $250K to net $166,667. A doable figure for the two ladies in question (though their expenses actually didn't match the 35% figure).

Actually it is not reasonable to extrapolate, knowing 2 is not reasonable proof that there is many more or even more at all. It is absolutely not as common that we make this kind of moneys as clients like to speculate. You can be sure that providers know the finances of other providers much better than clients do as many of us are actually friends with each other.

I am not broke, but I do save on grocery costs from dumpster diving.
Weekly I pick up one day old Kaiser buns from a sandwich shop near my house.
Usually about 24-30 buns in an unopened bag fresh from the bakery.
They throw out at least 1.5 bags of these buns every day of the week.

Use them for when we have burgers and also use them to make at work lunches with them for me and my kids.
Figure it saves at least $350 a year vs cost of these from a grocery store or bakery

Seriously..you feed your kid food from the dumpster?

It came from a bakery in the early morning, and went in the front door.
Then at closing it went out the back door, and to the dumpster in the same tied clear plastic bag that it arrived in, never even openned

I’d like to see how many of those 340,000 had an iPhone with a plan.

Yes, God forbid people have what is essentially a basic necessity in today's society and need food as well.
