    fuck people for not caring much about $10? i wouldn’t even consider that being rich. do you consider everyone in the middle class as obscenely rich? the average person out of their teens and 20s can waste $10 without caring.

      Not caring about spending $10 when you could spend $2 is being too rich to care. Over half of America lives paycheck-to-paycheck.

        included in the group that lives paycheck-to-paycheck are plenty of people making six figures.

        what you’re also ignoring is stuff like time cost. for a certain person, the time spent to find and research a reliable alternative at a lower price point might be worth more than $10 or $20.
