500 Pounds ??

At our Alpha course meeting on Monday the speaker on the video was talking about a friend of his with a "500 pound a week cocaine habit".

Around our table we all kind of looked quickly at each other & you could see people thinking "500 lbs a week ??"

Is that even possible to physically do ??
And if it is who could afford that kind of coke habit??

After a few moments the speaker announced, for his Canadian viewers, that it was 500 pounds in monetary worth not in weight units.

Funny how a statement that caused no stir at all in the speaker's British audience caused such a stir with a bunch of Canadians :)
