I make an obscene amount of money as a virologist for a large evil corporation, and even I have drastically reduced my expenditure. Everything feels so uncertain, I'd rather tuck it all away in savings.

I make an absurd amount of money as an engineer for a large evil corporation, and I've done the same. Fuck these companies. I drove 45 minutes to a small local lumber yard instead of going to the Home Depot or Lowes 5 minutes next to my house. I was a Pro member with a fuckton of rewards.
