  Just in case you're serious, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalination#Economics https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalination#Economics . > In 2014, the Israeli facilities of Hadera, Palmahim, Ashkelon, and Sorek were desalinizing water for less than US$0.40 per cubic meter. As of 2006, Singapore was desalinating water for US$0.49 per cubic meter. Try drinking a thousand liters of water, and get back to me with how much you think it would be possible to spend this way before killing yourself through excessive water consumption.

    I live in upstate NY, and $0.40 per cubic meter appears to be somewhat cheaper than my water bill. Although, that could be a wholesale price, without various overheads and fees. In any case, it sounds like a few dollars a month for normal usage.
