- viklove 7y agoI don't even understand how you could get a number not ending in 5 or 0 and think it's remotely correct...
- kaishiro 7y agoPresumably because they used to have $6 in the copy (or in their head) and fat fingered it.

- xutopia 7y agoProbably because they AB tested multiple prices as the article states and settled on the current price and forgot to replace one mention of an older price in the copy. No biggie... doesn't mean that person is dumb.
- ALLLOWERCASE 7y agoComical. A budgeting app that can't get basic math correct.
- quickthrower2 7y agoCompounding!
- jnfr 7y agoGuess it's a good thing I'm not calculating totals by hand within the app! :)
- s3cur3 7y agoI _wish_ I could have this good an attitude about people being assholes over tiny mistakes I make in public. One rude comment like the GP’s can easily ruin my mood for hours. People forget that the person on the other side of the keyboard is a human. :(
- mft_ 7y agoTotally agree. Having read a lot of similar threads on HN, relentless positivity and humbleness (maybe with a sprinkling of humour) seems to be the solution. Reminds me a little of being very young, at school, and learning to deal with other kids taking shots to look for a weakness - effectively early mild bullying. Then, again, the rule was stay positive and don’t show them you’re upset, or else they’ve found their weakness... and it will get worse.
- jnfr 7y agoHaha thanks, great catch :) Just patched that up!
