Let me work this out. Let's see... we have income, let's assume 500 USD bi-weekly (This is under assumption of American econ btw, apologies of not knowing the value of the peso or how the economy is there). 200 to groceries, 100 to bills, 100 for leisure. That makes 100 left for savings. A quinceanera occurs on the daughter's 16th birthday. Let's assume that the quinceanera is 25k. 100 biweekly, after 16 years or 832 weeks, that results in a dollar a day getting you 416 dollars, x 100, drop the 1 carry the zeros, 41,600 dollars. Post quinceanera results in 20,600 USD or 426,061.56 Mexican peso. There's your answer
Just for your info, 1000 dollars a month is way higher than the minimum wage in Mexico. That is the wage for a professional that isn't doing bad for themselves. Try 250 bi-weekly for a minimum wage working full time (48 hours) a week.
No honey I’m not Mexican but I’m Latina (I think it’s the same thing maybe I’m wrong) get you those aunties that loves you because you are their favorite,they will do whatever it takes to get you that quince
I was not spoiled. The most expensive thing about my 15 was the dress & the food dad cooked. The cake was a flop white brick that didnt even have any detailing.
You see, but thats because they always get padrinos who are living in the US for any little thing even if they wont go. A family member of my dad wanted him to be the padrino of the invitations even though he wasnt going to go, but he lied to them and said he was planning mine and had a very strict spending budget.
Mexican math is getting a padrino for everything lol😂
We need to normalize padrinos for regular birthday parties lol I would love a padrino for like bottle service 😂😂😂
Fr 😂

As a mexican i can agree

Mexican math is basically your about to go homeless can’t even afford to pay rent but still have the best truck ever

Groceries?.. how about rent/ mortgage. Car payments.. school tuition.. naahhhh still not enough
Most start saving when there daughter is born so they can go all out
As a Mexican I can confirm that this is math
Went to my cousins, looked like a millionaires wedding, her mother is a teacher
The thing is, the commone mexixan spend between 2 and 5 k for quinces
My aunt spent 30 k
🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
That’s very low. It’s usually upwards of 10k nowadays and that’s if you keep it small 😫
Yea its more expensive most of the time bc of the dresses and stuff, but u got the padrinos for that
So real❤❤❤❤❤

No honey I’m not Mexican but I’m Latina (I think it’s the same thing maybe I’m wrong) get you those aunties that loves you because you are their favorite,they will do whatever it takes to get you that quince
