If you are well connected and have relatives in the diaspora, then you can live like a king. You can drive around and chat on a mobile phone. If neither of the above do not apply to you then you are prone to starvation and dire poverty. Remember the west has lost interest in Africa yet we have developed a lot of so called intelligent yet abusive leaders. Any man who can neither take advice nor tolerate debate about national issues and thinks he knows it all, is a disgrace. We have many such disgraceful situations which are a result of irresponsible so called dedicated politicians.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('272819','Pecry Sibanda'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> --- <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('272819','Pecry Sibanda','The cost of living in Zimbabwe has no standard and hence no definition.

On the one hand we are told that almost everyone in Zimbabwe is in a desperate state, but here I read about the difficulties of living without a luxury that no-one in the West had until about ten years ago. I can't understand what the standard of living in Zimbabwe is really like. I have been reading stories for nine years suggesting that most of the people in the country are on the verge of dropping down dead, but I also read stories about them driving around in their cars while chatting on their mobiles.<div class="comment-remix-meta"><a href="#" class="replyto" onclick="replyto('272815','Oliver Chettle'); return false;">Reply to this comment</a> --- <a href="#" class="quote" onclick="quote('272815','Oliver Chettle','This sort of thing is very confusing.
