The world begins with shameless people

Chapter 61 was written before it was put on the shelves.

I'm not sure if it's my misunderstanding or what.

I have watched the show "Shameless" many times. In my opinion, the place where Fiona and her group of people live is really not the slums that some big guys think. It is the slums that they think. , but you know, no matter how ghetto it is, it’s still Chicago.

About prices, income, etc.

I followed the worldview of "Shameless". The prices in this show were not equal to the prices in Chicago at that time, at least not completely.

Frank's disability benefit is $674 per month, and Ginger's social security benefit is unknown, but it should be similar.

Frank spends about 700 to 800 U.S. dollars every month drinking at the Allebe's Bar. The wine at the Allebe's Bar is not that cheap, and it can't be a dollar a glass.

Frank's consumption is enough to illustrate this point.

Also.

In the third episode of the second season, Kevin proposed to the female bartender to buy Alaba in partnership. The female bartender refused directly, saying that she liked this kind of life of earning more than a hundred dollars a day and occasionally stealing some money from the cashier.

Alaba's business is like that, how cheap can wine be? How can a female bartender earn so much money every night?

Kevin's income should be similar to that of a female bartender, which is more than three thousand dollars a month.

Besides, the Gallaghers.

Fiona works various jobs to support five children, four of whom are in school, with food and drink. Fiona's poverty is relative to other districts.

Others on the South Side.

For example, people like Tommy and Kermit who hang out in Alber's Bar almost every day, how much worse can their income be?

-

So the recent plot, at least in my opinion, doesn't have much of a problem.

The protagonist's restaurant has high prices, but some people in the South District can't afford it at all. And don't forget, Americans' consumption concepts are different from ours.

Many people in the United States are in a state of immediate enjoyment and have no awareness of saving money.

-

As for the issue of the protagonist opening a restaurant.

The restaurant is the beginning of the protagonist's true integration into the world of Shameless.

Without this restaurant, the protagonist would have to go to work, otherwise he wouldn't be able to wander around every day. In that case, it would be impossible to write a novel.

then.

The restaurant is a tool, and I write about that in the book.

This book is not a food article.

The restaurant will play a big role, for all kinds of people in the world of Shameless.——

Anyway, that's it.

Please don't get hung up on the issue of prices. It's meaningless. The prices in the original drama are not accurate and contain contradictions.

What I wrote is a novel. I am poor and have never been to the United States. I really don’t know the real prices.

-

correct.

There is also the fact that if the protagonist has money, he will be shot, and if he has a car, he will lose it in a minute.

Again, I based it on the original play.

There is no such plot in the original drama, where no one robs or kills at every turn.

Those shameless people, at best, can only deceive people and not go offline.

Crime and other things rarely appear in the original drama, thank you.
