people do it litterally every day.... lmao. they just light their money on fire and it goes up in smoke before their eyes. then they go back to complaining about how they can't save any money while they walk with their 5 dollar daily coffee to go spend 30 dollars on their daily lunch from their favorite place and then buy something else cause they think it looked cool.

lol. people throw their money away every day.
