I mean, $2 is still $2. In my country, that could get like 3 cups of coffee

Yeah, that's interesting like a small amount for one, could be so important for others. If you live in North America or West Europe, it is easy to start ignoring amounts you transfer/use everyday.
Even looking for a thing like a signature campaign - in many many countries income from signatures covers a lot of daily expenses (or maybe even all of them). I wonder if we have on the forum people for whom it is a "daily job".
