two questions

I was born in 1990, which should answer the age question. Even a student, who is arguably the least productive social group, earns an average of twenty thousand rubles in Moscow. In the regions, of course, it's less. That should be enough for ice cream, a game every ten years, and the English version of the Heroes 3 anthology (very elite, no one knows how you can play it in English instead of Russian?!).
In Ukraine and Belarus, the conditions are different, so I won't say anything about that. But three hundred rubles is not even nine hundred. In the Heroes shop, SoD costs one hundred rubles, and RoE costs one hundred and fifty. That's enough for one day of travel on public transport. Well, I don't know, to each their own.
