I want a service that lets me delete money. I’m serious. I think it’s healthy not to get too attached to money and deleting $10 without getting anything in return seems good for the soul.
I haven’t thought about this a lot but it might actually be pretty hard to do. You can’t just burn cash — that’s illegal. I don’t want the money going to anyone else, so you can’t just buy something with my money and destroy it. Also, you’d need to figure out a way to prove that it has been deleted and that you’re not just pocketing it.
Figure out how to delete my money and I’ll gladly pay $10/month.
- commonturtle 6y agoWhy not just give it to charity?
- coddle-hark 6y agoI do that too, but it signifies something different. Giving to charity means my money has value, which means I should work to get more money so that I can give even more to charity. Deleting money, on the other hand, makes the urge to earn more money rather pointless. It helps me align my goals to what really makes my life meaningful.
- guywithabowtie 6y agoCan you explain more on your understanding of delete ?
- coddle-hark 6y agoBasically: UPDATE Users SET netWorth = netWorth - 10 WHERE name = "coddle-hark"
