Imagine being so financially challenged that your entire tech stack runs on the generosity of strangers who decided to code libraries in their free time. And what's your contribution to these digital saints? A measly GitHub star. Not a donation. Not even a coffee. Just a virtual gold sticker that costs absolutely nothing. Open-source maintainers out here debugging at 3 AM, dealing with entitled issue reports like "it doesn't work pls fix," and getting compensated with... *checks notes* ...internet points. Meanwhile you're building a million-dollar startup on their free labor. The audacity! The shamelessness! The... reality of modern software development! But hey, at least you clicked that star button. That's basically the same as paying rent, right? 🌟

When you realize that selling one 16GB stick to buy two 16GB sticks still leaves you with... one 16GB stick. Galaxy brain financial planning right here. It's like robbing Peter to pay Paul, except Peter and Paul are both you, and you're still broke with half the RAM you started with. Mickey's got that look of someone who just discovered that dual-channel memory exists and now his single stick is running in peasant mode. The Kingston Fury Beast deserves better than this economic anxiety. At least Chrome will have 16GB less RAM to consume.

I'm Rich Now
You know you've hit rock bottom when your first paycheck goes straight to upgrading from 8GB to 16GB of RAM. Someone's fanning out RAM sticks like they just won the lottery, and honestly? In today's memory prices, they might as well have. That dopamine hit when you finally have enough budget to download more RAM (but legally this time) is unmatched. The fire emoji really sells the excitement of being able to run Chrome with more than three tabs open without your machine turning into a space heater. Welcome to tech wealth: where your riches are measured in DDR4 modules and your bank account cries in silicon.
