I charge $30 for a license that allows a person to use Jer’s Novel Writer without being nagged occasionally. When I first came to visit the Czech Republic, that money could buy me more than 120 beers at one of the cheaper places. Now, just a few years later, thirty bucks buys about 22 beers in the same bars.

Hmm, $160 to get you back to your 120 beers does seem a bit steep, doesn’t it.
Yikes.
Still, here in the US, that $30 will get 15 pseudo-beers at happy hour in the cheaper places. For real beer, you’re looking at maybe getting eight or so.
Oh, and those are 12-ounce beers, or sometimes a 16-ounce American pint, not half-liters.
I just looked: 16.14 kc/$. That means the beer’s up to $1.30! At least Lüfthansa doesn’t charge for the in flight bier. But, they serve 355ml biers.
Enjoy that you’re in the Czech Republic where they INVENTED the beer!
