That's an old offer (2018). Today it cost about 30.000.000.000 BsF (old currency, in the picture) = 300.000 BsS (the new one).

Not kidding.

I met a girl from Venezuela who tells me her mother makes $3 (USD) a month which is also how much a rice bag of 1 kilo costs.

Edit: since everyone is asking how she and her mother survive I should note that the daughter turned to other ways of making money to pay her rent, school, and other necessities which her mother doesn’t know about.

Edit 2: no she’s not a prostitute. people are assuming that’s how I met her
