What is the most expensive daily item? [10 STEEM Bounty]
Hi everyone! Help me out with a little survey. I am trying to find out what is the most expensive daily item/necessity in your opinion. Select an option and explain why is that the most expensive in your opinion. It will be great to also let me know which part of the world you are from. The results will be featured in one of my future posts.
This is my first Dpoll (https://dpoll.xyz/) survey and I am going to attach a 10 Steem bounty (https://www.steem-bounty.com/) to gather more results. So kindly help with the survey and spread the word. If you are not a DPoll user, just leave a comment for this post and there is still a chance to win some Steem bounty.
Thanks in advance!

Hey man, I am from Western Canada and here the greatest expense is definitely housing, either owning or renting. In my area lots of people are "house poor" meaning they work to earn, to afford their mortgage.
Housing prices are so crazy a 2 bedroom apartment we owned, that was 10 years old, and had some problems in terms of construction, sold in 5 days, with multiple offers, $50,000 ABOVE asking price, and without any subjects.
We sold our place for $440,000 and it was only 880 square feet, a small 2 bed, 2 bath.
If that isn't crazy I dont know what is.
Thanks for sharing. I think properties are certainly among one of the most unaffordable things in life. We usually slave our entire life to pay off the mortgage

I am form Serbia and in my country the most expensive thing is to buy a house.
It will cost between 60 000-100 000$ althought renting a house is very cheap it costs from 200-500$ depending on the house.
The houses here are much much cheaper then in the USA and the income is much lower then USA (400-600$ average range monthly).

Thanks for the comment. Although in terms of absolute value, houses in Serbia is cheaper, the people there also have a lower income. Everything is relative

House and Transport and Utilities are all Necessity items, and hard to evade. You are kind of forced to consume them somehow regardless of the price.
Other items are more controllable, like cigarettes, beer, whisky, gambling, all the vices really.
I would say the most expensive item is Gambling, coz you dont really get anything back ! (that is if you indulge in it)
Gambling is certainly a money blackhole. There is no limit to how much it can suck in. Haha..

Since you get nothing towards your future by renting either I would have to say its the most costly and many cannot live without
Thanks for sharing your thoughts

I am on a 90 day tourist visa in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia and I know from friends who live here permanently that buying a house is out of reach for many. Few people I know own their home or condo and many live in shared rentals like me.
Since I came from California and lived in Thailand before coming here, I can say that every single thing here is cheaper than in California, and most daily need are maybe 10-20% more expensive than in Thailand.
Thanks for the comment!
