“Super tipid ako dito sa London kasi ang mahal. Kaya namalengke na lng kmi nung first day at nagluto dito sa air bnb,” Vice wrote.
He went on to reveal that he and his companions had been stretching their meals for days: “Pangatlong araw na naming iniinit tong natirang adobo.”
The statement then shifted from budgeting to his frustration with how taxes are purportedly handled in the Philippines.
“Tapos bigla kong naalala ung milyon milyon kong tax na pinaghahati hatian ng mga garapal na magnanakaw. Aray koooo!!!!”
Vice, one of the highest taxpayers in the entertainment industry, even accompanied the post with Mae Rivera’s song “Aray” as background music.
