Oh You Unfortunate Few
I'm not homeless! This is, understandably, very exciting for me. I'll be living in a room at The Leaky Cauldron for 15 Galleons a month. Based on this small rent price, I assume that we're talking about one small, shitty room. At least it's not the Hogshead, though. The owner said that he would employ me as a busboy to earn my keep. Fanfuckingtastic. Could be worse, though. At least I'm making money. 1 sickle an hour, plus tips, but still.
8 hour work day=8 sickles per day
30 days per month=240 sickles
17 sickles to a galleon=240/17= 14
14?
Shit.
9 hour work day=9 sickles per day
30 days per month=270
17 sickles to a galleon=270/17=15.9
That's about two sickles with which to buy food. For a month.
Fuck.
12 hour work day=12
*30=360
/17= 21.2
-15=
6.2 galleons for food. Which is not much, but possible.
God hates me.

I'm finished with most of my packing. At least, all of the stuff that I don't need is packed. Which is not much, anyhow. Does anybody know of a place that buys used books? For money, not for store credit.

Professor,
Thank you very much for loaning this to me. Sorry that it took me awhile to get it back. Exams took up entirely too much of my time.
