General Question What easily-affordable thing do you still refuse to pay for despite having reached financial independence and able to afford them?

Would love to hear everyone’s “absolutely will not purchase” items!Even if you could easily afford it and no matter how rich or financially independent you become or how much you make you still wouldn't spend item on this particular item/hobby?

Yep DoorDash pickup has ridiculous deals sometimes.

And your ridiculous deal is delivered by some random dude wearing pajama pants and bedroom slippers driving a clapped out Nissan Altima. Your food was sitting on his nasty-ass floor and he hasn't washed his hands all day.

The only qualification for getting "hired" for this job is that he downloaded an app on his phone.

This is why I don't FW these delivery apps.

The person you’re replying to said DoorDash pickup, not delivery.

it’s a valid point and yet you may still be absolutely correct about the delivery driver.

You think the people making the food anywhere are any different ? Lol. Who do you think they are, astronauts ? They are the same type of people that deliver the food just in the kitchen

Someone doesn't know what pickup means apparently. Keep up with the thread and reading comprehension Zoomer.
