This is your workplace. Your day has just finished, you're really tired and [[you just want to take the bus and go back home|regresar a tu casa]].
Today a co-worker skipped work, so your boss needs someone who [[can stay overtime doing their work|se quede hasta tarde haciendo sus tareas]]. If you take it, you'll recieve a ''$15.000'' bonus at the end of the month, but it might compromise your health.<h1>Before we start...</h1>
This game is a budget management simulator inspired by the ''inequality'' in Chile. For this exercise, current prices of rents, copayment for health insurance, transport and more, were used.
This game uses the ''numeral system used in Chile'', so a thousand Chilean pesos would be written as $1.000 instead of $1,000.
(set: $arriendo to 200000)(set: $proxsueldo to 0)
At the time of developing this game, the minimum wage in Chile was ''$301.000 ($400 USD)'' and according to the <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20190914031855/https://www.cnnchile.com/economia/ine-la-mitad-de-los-trabajadores-en-chile-recibe-un-sueldo-igual-o-inferior-a-400-000-al-mes_20190813/" target="_blank">National Institute of Statistics of Chile (INE)</a>, more than a half of workers in Chile earn ''$400.000'' ($540 USD) or less.
''NOTE:'' In this exercise, pension payments and health insurance were not considered, so in reality the money with which one should start is much lower, and the cost of the student debt is equivalent to that of a technical career.

You keep working for the rest of the day without socializing that much until it's [[time to leave|en la micro]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/STlwFhB.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/YwUXWAi.gif'>") ]

At the supermarket you buy the same stuff you always do: food for breakfast, stuff that's easy and fast to cook, so you don't have to spend too much time preparing your lunch everyday.
You buy more than you usually do in an attempt to avoid having to go back to the supermarket for a couple of days.
You go to the cashier and the bill is $19.790 in total. It's more than what you expected, but there isn't anything you could really take out. You proceed to (link: "pay")[(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 19790)(goto: "postsuper")] and go home and rest.(set: $proxsueldo to $proxsueldo - 7500)(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/edkmMll.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/eaIJsUK.gif'>") ]

You're back home. As you returned outside peak hours you managed to find a seat in the bus, but the exhaustion hasn't stopped.
Maybe it would be a nice idea to make a [[doctor appointment|visita al médico]] or try to [[get some rest|reposar]].<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

You check online if you can schedule an appointment to the doctor soon. Unfortunately, all the hours are taken for today, but you were able to find a doctor who can see you tomorrow morning.

Today you don't have plans, but after checking your closet you realize that there's almost no clean clothes for the next week.

You buy a token for the washing machine and another for the drying machine, spending $2.200 in total. Luckily, you don't have too many clothes to wash and it should be enough for 2 weeks.
After waiting almost 2 hours, both washing and drying cycles are over and you can go back to your appartment to [[store your clothes|guardar la ropa]].<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

After a few minutes she asks you if you could go to lunch with her tomorrow.

You arrive at your grandma's house. As always, she welcomes you with a delicious lunch, made with a lot of effort. You'd like to take her out somewhere to eat, or invite her to your appartment, so that she's not always straining herself, but you also don't want her to take the bus, and you don't have money for a taxi.
Still, it seems your grandma doesn't mind doing this.
You both have a good talk for a [[while|buen rato]].<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/VO24II5.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/pnLeWpc.gif'>") ]

After you're done eating, you get up and offer to do the dishes. Your grandma says that you shouldn't worry, but you insist a little and she lets you. You know she's tired too.
While you're getting ready to go back home, your grandma takes out her purse and comes close to you. She gives you a $10.000 bill while she says "It might not be much, but I hope it helps you". You know that this is a big sacrifice for her, considering her pension.

Feeling a little guilty, you take the bill and thank your grandmother. You really need it, and even when you didn't say anything that indicates so, you were in economic struggles, it's so nice to know she worries about you.

You can choose between [[buying groceries tomorrow|15m]], but you'll have to buy lunch at the office, or you can [[buy the bag|16m]] and take home everything you need to prepare lunch for the rest of the week.(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 15540)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/edkmMll.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/eaIJsUK.gif'>") ]

You arrive home. It's late, but you convince yourself to cook something. You make rice and a side-dish. You think that maybe you should try to eat healthier, but you know that vegetables at the supermarket are expensive. Maybe this weekend you should try to go to a market.

You manage to relax a bit, but soon enough your co-workers are back. Apparently they had a good time. You would've liked to have been with them.
You ask yourself if you could've went out to eat with them, but you're never sure if you'll make it to [[the end of the month|day17]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/9aeUsTP.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/WBhIb3i.gif'>") ]

You check the menu and pick the cheapest dish they have: A $1.990 sandwich. It's possible that you'll be hungry afterwards. Will you ask for the

You're focusing in your work at the office. The atmosphere feels a bit tense. You don't understand what's going on until you see one of your co-workers a bit upset, while a few others are comforting him.
Before you can get up and come closer, you overhear your co-workers, saying they will miss him. They've just fired him. You don't understand why, he was a great employee. You wonder if maybe they're reducing personnel, and maybe the same could happen to you.
Quickly, you get back to work in your area, focusing even more than usual, as if maybe this could convince your employer that you're giving it your all for this company.

You try to do the same, and you even stay [[later|un poco más tarde]] than usual.(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/qjQt66B.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/10PUjCZ.gif'>") ]

You leave your home at the same hour as usual to take a bus. For some reason, it has taken more time than usual to arrive. If you keep waiting, you'll be late to the office.
The alternative is taking a taxi, but it's a long drive and the trip might cost around $5.800 pesos. Would you rather [[wait for the bus and arrive late|esperar la micro y llegar tarde]] or [[take a cab|tomar un taxi por $4.000]]?(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)(set: $salud to $salud - 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/KKXbsEI.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/AWxj5I7.gif'>") ]
$img
After waiting for several minutes, the bus finally came and you made it to the office.
You're 20 minutes late. Maybe it's not that much, but you feel that you could get fired for any reason. You try to go unnoticed and quickly you get to your workspace to work really focused [[until the end of the day|hasta el resto del día]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 4000)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/KKXbsEI.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/AWxj5I7.gif'>") ]

Luckily you were able to take an empty taxi cab and you made it to the office in time.

It's finally Saturday. You don't have plans for today, so you use this opportunity to go to the [[market|feria]], that way you can eat healthier.<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/STlwFhB.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/YwUXWAi.gif'>") ]

At the market there are many fruits and veggies you'd like to buy, but you know that if you take too many they might spoil. You take potatoes, lettuce, tomatoes, onions, and a few other things.
You take $5.680 in total. You'd like to buy some fruits too to have something sweet to eat at home, but that would make your groceries cost up to $7.160. Will you buy (link: "fruits")[(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 5680)(goto: "casa20")] or you will only get (link: "the usual")[(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 7160)(goto: "casa20")]?<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/edkmMll.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/eaIJsUK.gif'>") ]

It's a message from your group of friends. They're planning something for today and want to try a new pizza place that just opened near one of their houses. You don't know the place's prices, but taking into consideration the usual prices at these pizza places you will be expending at least $4.000, besides 2 bus fees.
What will you tell your friends? Will you (link: "go to the pizza place")[(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 4120)(goto: "pizza")] or will you tell them that [[you can't go|no puedes]]?(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 720)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/DIPauK4.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/20ptNxx.gif'>") ]

You arrive to the pizza place and you meet your friends. You're glad you chose to go, mainly after everything that happened at the office.
Most of the time you've been eating rice, mashed potatos or noodles, switching the same side-dishes every day, so it sure feels good to eat something different, even if it feels like a luxury.
You try not to think about it too much and enjoy your time spent with your friends. Tomorrow you will have to [[go back to the office|day22]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 720)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>

You tell your friends that you don't think you can go, but you thank them for the invitation anyway.
Some minutes later, you get a private message from one of your friends. He says that if it's because of money issues, he can pay your bill. In any way, you'd still have to pay for 2 bus rides in case you accept his offer.
You're moved by his help, but you also feel a bit guilty. You know your friend doesn't have that much money either and this is a big sacrifice.

$img
Even with your friend's insistence, you choose not to go. You wonder if you're overreacting, but you never know if an emergency might occur and you might need that money.
You try to convince yourself that you did the right thing and try to think about something else for [[the rest of the day|day22]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/KKXbsEI.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/AWxj5I7.gif'>") ]

Another week starts, and you remember that this week you have to pay rent. You anxiously check your bank account and you see that you have (print: asPesos($sueldo)) left.
On your bank's website you see a message telling you about a pre approved loan for $200.000 that you could pay up to 12 months in easy $20.230 installments. You dream about all the things you could do if you requested that loan, but the idea of getting in debt for that many months is scary, taking into consideration what's going on at work right now.
The time to close arrives and you go home [[to sleep|a dormir]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 1600)(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

It's Tuesday, you just came back from the office and you're checking your phone.
After reading your email, you notice you just got a mail about your [[natural gas bill|cuenta de gas]].<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/uC3DlDD.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/uC3DlDD.gif'>") ]

Luckily this bill is cheaper than the electric or water ones. You decide to pay immediately to keep bills from piling up.
(if: $luz is 1)[You also pay up the electric bill ($8.150) as it's about to expire.

Two days from now is the due date to pay your rent. You are also wearing the last clean shirt you have left, so you'll have to wash your clothes once you get home.
You can go to the [[laundromat|lavasec]] and buy 2 tokens for $2.200 in total, or you can try to [[wash you clothes by hand|lavar ropa a mano]], but you're not sure if they'll be dry by tomorrow.(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 3000)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/edkmMll.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/eaIJsUK.gif'>") ]

After coming back from the office you grabbed your clothes and you put them in the bathtub. You scrubbed and rinsed as much as you could until there were no traces of soap left.
You try to squeeze all the water from your shirts while you wonder if doing that will only make them more wrinkly. Seeing how wet your clothes are you're not so sure if they'll dry [[on time|day25b]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/KKXbsEI.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/AWxj5I7.gif'>") ]

You're at the office, but upon arriving you learn that another coworker has been let go.
You ask yourself again if these terminations will keep going, and if you're the next on the list. After talking with your coworkers these firings don't seem to be related to a reduction of personnel but to an individual case by case basis. Nonetheless, you cannot stop thinking that this may happen to you.
You try to stop thinking so negatively, and try hard to concentrate on working until it's time to [[go home|arriendo]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/KKXbsEI.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/AWxj5I7.gif'>") ]

You are at the office. In the end, your clothes didn't dry properly before it was time to leave for work, so you had to leave the house with the same shirt that you used the day before.
On top of that, you learned that another coworker has been fired. For a couple seconds you wonder if wearing the same clothes two days in a row is cause for termination. You quickly realize that thinking like that is irrational, and you attribute that way of thinking to too much stress.
Either way, you still hope that no one notices that you are wearing the same thing as yesterday, and continue working until it's time [[to leave|arriendo]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

You are at your apartment. While you browse your phone you remember that you haven't paid your student debt this month. The installments keep rising every month, and the one this month is $47.940.
In your head you can hear the words that you were told during your teenage years: <i>"If you study and get a college degree you WILL have a bright future!"</i> A couple years have gone by since you earned your degree, but you still hope that <i>that</i> bright future eventually comes.
You look back at your phone screen and make the transfer. You go to [[sleep|day26]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 49540)(set: $dia to $dia + 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/qjQt66B.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/10PUjCZ.gif'>") ]

You're coming back from work. Today is the last day you can pay your rent in time, and you don't want to have problems with the landlord. He has given you lots of opportunities by letting you rent this place even though your salary was below the original requirements. You know that it would be really easy for him to kick you out and find a new tenant.
(if: $sueldo < 200000)[You finally get [[home|day26b]]].(else:)[You finally get [[home|day26c]].](set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

You check your bank account one more time. You have (print: asPesos($sueldo)) left and the rent is $200.000. Even if you waited for next month's salary (in 4 more days), next month you would have the same problem again.
Even if you borrowed money from someone, you know you wouldn't be able to pay it back next month in full. The other solution seems to be to take the pre-approved loan of $200,000, but you'll have to spend the next 12 months paying ''$20.230'' in installments and if you get fired, these installments could become unaffordable.
You think about it a little, since it's either that or risk losing your apartment... But you finally end up [[requesting it|lo solicitas]].(set: $sueldo to $sueldo + 200000)(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 800)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

You check your bank account one more time. You have (print: asPesos($sueldo)) left and the rent is $200.000. You barely survived another month and next month you'd have to do the same thing again.
Luckily in 4 more days they will pay, but you will have to keep your expenses to a minimum until that day arrives. There are so many things you would have liked to do that you had to put aside...
(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 200000)
You decide to go to bed early so you don't have to think about it. At least you still have your little apartment and you haven't lost faith that someday, maybe, you'll get a [[better salary|creditos2]].(set: $salud to $salud - 1)<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/hFNT1ma.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/hFNT1ma.gif'>") ]

With just a couple of clicks, the money comes into your account. It makes you happy to see (print: asPesos($sueldo)) in your account at this stage of the month. You quickly pay this month's rent to the owner and make ends meet.
(set: $sueldo to $sueldo - 200000)
With this money you might not have to deprive yourself of going out to eat with your office mates or friends--
But then you stop to think. If the expenses of the last few weeks have already made it difficult for you to make ends meet, you will now have an extra $20.230 over the next 12 months. You'll use the same money from the loan to pay off [[that debt|esa deuda]].<div class="hud"><div class="dia">''Day $dia''</div><div class="dinero">''Money:'' (print: asPesos($sueldo))</div></div>(if: $gen is 0) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/83wAVpd.gif'>") ](if: $gen is 1) [ (set: $img to "<img src='https://i.imgur.com/EMmyc1W.gif'>") ]

Although you will temporarily have a little more money in your account, that money is debt disguised as savings. When you finish paying off that loan, you'll have given more than ''$40.000'' to the bank.
But you've already borrowed it.
For a few seconds you try to console yourself by thinking that if that money isn't enough, you may be able to take another loan to pay for the first one... But you quickly try to dismiss that idea.
You decide to go to bed early so you don't have to think about it. At least you still have your little apartment and you haven't lost faith that someday, perhaps, you'll get a [[better salary|creditos]].<h1>Results</h1>You finished this month with (print: asPesos($sueldo)) and your health is at (print: $salud)0%.
You still have almost 2 decades left to finish paying your student debt, with fees that go up every month.
In addition to this, next month you will only receive (print: asPesos($proxsueldo)).
