because you've just said the average monthly wage is R$240 and the cost of a car is R$40, which means the cost of living's cheap, which makes it easier to get rich...........

I said R$40k.

"k" is a term used in the U.S. meaning "1,000."


Also an abbreviation of "kilo," which has the same meaning.

I think the C-47 and also, if WW2 had continued longer, I think we could have seen a bright spark getting the aircraft gunship idea. This was in every theatre of war the Allies fought in and provided sterling service for Paratrooper operations and glider towing.

With the YB-40 and YB-41 the gunship idea was starting to come to fruition, but as bomber escorts. They werent that good though because they couldnt keep up with the bombers
