>I… said I was dining out far less? I literally am one of the ones deciding to stay home and cook my own food and make my own drinks. Sorry, that was too intense. I've never had that kind of economic security, so I reacted harshly since I've had some really rude people interact with me on and offline recently. I was off the mark in the tone of my comment, and I apologize for that.

Stuff like that makes you think your money is worthless, since the things you want to purchase will be forever beyond your reach even if you did become a billionaire rather than someone making ~70k in a low cost of living city.) >I’m also confused how me tipping less would enable someone to short my companies stock when nowhere on my person does it say where I work. I'm saying the barista might notice where you work and trade based on that information -- or give it to a friend who has enough $ to trade with. Hope that helps.
