This story of Cuba is different from the one that is usually told.

Here is that when I began to have the use of reason I remember that my parents were two common workers, with their salaries of 148 CUP for my mother and 171 CUP for my father, they supported their three children in all their needs, when I say all their needs I meant all their needs, even those of entertainment.

They instilled in me that I should have a profession for the future, in reality they always did it with the three of them, only I followed the advice.

Over time I became a doctor, after much struggle, my parents' salary was not enough to support themselves and I had to start working with my older brother, who had a business, in order to have the means to pay for my lunches and trips to the university. The time came when thanks to that business I could help my parents, working with the government was no longer profitable.

The dual currency began: the CUP, which was what workers were paid, and the CUC, which was paid at the end of so much fluctuation at 25 CUP, so a worker earned 25 times less than before, and products were scarce, so they had to fight very hard. A doctor, the famous profession of the future that I was studying, earned 400 CUP (16 CUC) in a month, I earned that in my brother's business in 2 days of work.

Then the printing press started and little by little they started paying more; 573 CUP, 1500 CUP, 5560 CUP until 2021.

But I will tell you that part tomorrow, if you want I can continue telling you.
