This is what happens when an older, retired person hooks up with a younger person. You have two people who are on different phases in their lives. You see this all the time with older actors who ditch their appropriate age wives to be with a younger woman and they start popping babies left and right. This is nothing new.
This has to do with culture. You have to remember that things like SB are LUXURIES in other countries, especially Central and South America. It is wasteful and it doesn’t make sense to spend money on coffee which can be made at home. The whole market scene was telling of that. Latinos from Central and South America are generally no nonsense. We do out of necessity and are pretty frugal. I’m sure Manuel is frustrated by not being able to work. A man’s purpose is to work and to provide for the necessities in life.
