It was only $XXX, I know its not much but...WTF is up with that?

you wont see too many rants from me but...


<rant>Fuck that! I see a lot, and I mean a surprisingly large number of people who start conversations about epass by saying something like "it was only $300/$400/$500 etc" like somehow that diminishes their loss. Fuck that, you earned that money and the amount is not relevant. This may come across as fucked up but for someone who really needs it I feel much more sympathy for those who do not have access to those smaller amounts then someone who is not living week to week not having access tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars

There have been times in my life (thank god not right now) where every single dollar mattered. There was no minor expenses at those time and every slice of bread had a monetary value that I was well aware of.

I feel bad for everyone who has taken a hit with this epass thing, yes I have some money tied up with it right now, but the amount of cash doesn't matter and I think a lot of people saying 'it's only $XXX' need to stop minimizing their potential loss and stop saying that</rant>
