Is this a joke? What can you do with a motorcycle on $5 per day? That would buy gas for a 50 mile ride....provided I didn't eat, sleep or recreate.
I think this is the first time I've ever used that bug-eyed little smiley in 500 or more Hubb posts.
There's another thread current about costs in Latin America which I think strikes a more realistic note. Simon, for example, has struggled manfully to limit  consumption to no more than 50% of his daily budget. http://www.horizonsunlimited.com/hub...os-aires-49140

Edit to add: Being genuinely curious, I looked at the page to which you linked. The information there is thoroughly out of date; specific costs with which I'm familiar are low by about 50%, and the spreadsheet is from 2000, which is a decade (and many lifetimes) ago.
