Unless you’re feeding a small army, it’s not possible for groceries alone to add up to anything like that. Eating out easily could ($200/day x 30 days = $6000!) but not from actual cooking.

Well, yes, individually food alone would be difficult. I listed several items assuming a mixture of all of them could add up to 100k.
Oh, I didn't add hobbyist activities- if my personal passion was vintage first edition signed books I could probably blow thousands and thousands easily.

Especially if they are picking up someone else’s tab food could easily be $200 a day in a big city. If you add in other random things like female beauty products and services, can/Uber, or if both or alcoholics $100k of misc year expenses is very realistic and might even involve personal restraint keeping it down.

Fresh from farm food is actually a great way to save money and eat healthier! Search for a local CSA and support it!

Don’t forget the weekly transfusion from your personal blood boy.
(EDIT: And I bet it's still feel inadequately uncultured compared to an even wealthier peer who owns several paintings, vintage wines, attends every big show in the best seating + hires a personal stylist!)
