Presumably it's a $50 food allowance per day. From the way it's [poorly] written it sounds like they give you $50 for the entire 80 days.

I'd do it if I didn't have a kid, or a job I didn't care for. Would be awesome to steal a buggy and drive around in it. Posted via RS Mobile |

$50 a day for food is not enough if you're eating out.

Just to keep from being bored and moping around, I'd try a bunch of different jobs to pass the time.

Damn if I was in Canada, I'd enter. Here's what you HAVE to do:
Two (2) stories each week;
A minimum of one (1) personal video diary entry each week;
Up to three (3) spontaneous stories (in written and/or video form) each week;
A minimum of one (1) interactive Twitter / Facebook video response each week;
A minimum of four (4) Twitter updates per week;
A minimum of two (2) Facebook updates per week;
A weekly blog for www.LiveatYVR.ca; and
Additional content ongoing.
And the $50 per day is only if you turn down the offer of 3 meals one day.. so if you don't feel like airport food for another meal, you can use your voucher.

People who work there can tell you now that there really aren't 80 days worth of things to do in there.

But again, the $50 is only necessary if you don't want to eat the provided meals.

Just print a fake boarding pass and use an Airline lounge if you have status with them. Free drinks and food all day with relaxation facilities. If you don't have lounge access, easily obtainable with Priorty Pass which I believe is $400us a year or comes free with many credit cards.
I would just chill in the lounge all day and wander around when wanting too. Posted via RS Mobile |
