Single people aren't buying in bulk, nor should they.


Couples dont cook in bulk. They cook for 2.

A single person should cook for 1.

This concept shouldn't be very hard.

Does bulk save money? A lot of times it does. But there isnt some magic switch when cooking for 1 versus 2 that makes bulk worthwhile. Cooking for 2 does not equal cooking bulk.

There is, unless you're arguing that social considerations should not be a priority.

Growing up, I drove to buckhead or dekalb county if I wanted to drink out till 4am. I drove to Suwanee if I wanted to buy beer after midnight. The invention of cars is not a novelty. You presume too little of the ingenuity and ability of the human spirit to get loaded.

Very few people in their twenties are "financially healthy" by the standards of people in their fifties.

Straw man. No reason to bring this up.

That, or it drives them to make more money.

Hey. That's part of the dave Ramsey plan. You're catching on.

I shouldn't have said bulk, but buying for two is more economical than buying for one. It's like a miniature model of economies of scale. There is also the convenience factor of splitting cooking duties, which is admittedly a cost that can get trimmed.

I try to avoid driving anywhere if I'm going to get loaded, and that uber is not free.
