Aws billing Memes

The AWS cost management learning curve is a financial horror story in two acts: Act 1: The newbie who steps on a rake and gets smacked with a $50K bill because they accidentally left an expensive service running. Classic rookie mistake - "I just wanted to try this one feature..." Act 2: The "experts" who've learned to skateboard around the rakes but still somehow rack up the same bill. They're just doing it with style now! They've mastered the art of saying "that's within our projected burn rate" with a straight face while sweating internally. The cloud is just someone else's computer that charges you by the millisecond for the privilege of forgetting to turn things off.
