 +As you read through this, bear in mind that one Pound/Dollar/Euro is worth somewhere between  1cp and 1sp.  Does that sound too little? Check out the equivalents below :) Game prices come from Pathfinder, the RL prices were found online in 2025.

 +  * A mug of ale costs 4cp - The average price for a pint in England is £5.44 - although my region is (fortunately) below average in that respect :)
 +  * A cheap meal costs 1sp -  It is about £4 for a MacDonalds Happy Meal.
 +  * A short sword costs 10 gp - I just brought a second hand, reenacting, Hangar (a 17C short sword)  at 'mates rates' for £100 -  I just found new Hangars for sale online at £200 each (or £240 if I wanted them sharp).
