You're being obtuse: "a lot of money" in this context is a relative amount and you know that.

You've missed the point. It's the fact that this guy did pay for the services.
It says in the article that would have cost 7k.
They have a negative net worth. They could not afford to do it.
You may not need $1000, but some people literally do.
No, because you spent $10K on random stuff that he/she did not. Somewhere you have $10K in goods, services, or experiences that he/she does not.
So why did you pay $100,000?
It's $12k, isn't it?
Of course not. But (and it's a really big but...):
> If he did, then he wouldn't have made such a ridiculously overpriced offer.
His ego won't let him do anything BUT (see, it's a really big but) make a ridiculous offer.
They don't pay a bit. We, on the other hand, pay and don't receive value for our money.
I know. People would not pay that.
Sure it is.
Well they certainly wouldn't volunteer the offer without you asking for it.
That's not the point.
You think it was a good money, but they disagree and want (much) more.
I'm sure that plays into it, yes.
In most cases, the more money you give the more they will "give a shit."
It's likely more accurate to say they didn't want to afford the $150k.
You're going to have to go into a lot more detail if you want anybody to believe expenses that high are possible.
I'd have taken the money, and then not done anything.
Why would you do this?
Sounds like it was a flawed plan from the get go.
