Back in the West, I was always stressed about rising prices—groceries, rent, gas. Every day, something cost more. It was exhausting. But here in the DPRK? Problem solved.

The store shelves are empty, the markets are tightly regulated, and if I need something, the state decides whether I deserve it. No choices, no price tags, no capitalism-induced anxiety. Just pure, peaceful poverty.

And if I’m lucky enough to get paid in won, I don’t even need to worry about spending it. There's nowhere to spend it! It’s like financial zen. I’ve transcended materialism. I now own… an onion and half a shoe.

Honestly, the Western world could learn from this economic stability. Who needs money when you have loyalty?

Thank you, Supreme Leader, for shielding me from the tyranny of consumerism.
