Worth It
So you dropped 64GB of RAM and a blazing fast 6000 MT/s SSD into your rig, and what do you get? The privilege of eating a single sad slice of bread for dinner. But hey, at least your IDE opens in 0.2 seconds instead of 0.3 seconds, so who's really winning here? Nothing says "I have my priorities straight" quite like choosing between food and faster compile times. Spoiler alert: the RAM always wins. Your stomach may be empty, but your swap file? Absolutely untouched. Chef's kiss. 💋 Developer life is all about sacrifices, and apparently rent, groceries, and basic human sustenance are negotiable, but that sweet, sweet hardware upgrade? Non-negotiable. Totally worth subsisting on breadcrumbs when your Docker containers spin up like butter.

The Programmer's First Paycheck
PLOT TWIST OF THE CENTURY! Just when you think it's a heartwarming success story about finally cashing in on those coding skills, BAM! The punchline hits harder than a production bug on a Friday afternoon! Turns out our hero's "programming income" came from literally SELLING THE TOOL NEEDED TO PROGRAM! It's the coding equivalent of selling your car to pay for gas! The financial desperation is so real I can practically smell the instant ramen from here!

The Inevitable Path To Steam Purchases
The flowchart of gamer desperation! This masterpiece maps out every possible financial scenario that inevitably leads to buying games on Steam. Broke? No job? No possessions? No problem! The algorithm always terminates at "BUY" because let's face it, your financial responsibility routine has more edge cases than a poorly written regex. My favorite path is the "BLASPHEMY" route – because nothing says "I'm a responsible adult" like cursing the capitalist system while simultaneously emptying your wallet during the Summer Sale. And if you've reached the "Do you have a soul?" decision node, you're already too far gone. Just accept your fate and prepare for your bank account to hit that recursion base case: zero.
