One user said, “Being rich is one thing, staying rich is another.” Another wrote, “During the surge, I order food from Zomato, call the delivery guy, and ask him to bring milk on the way, then tip him instead, win-win for both.”
A third user added, “It’s hard earned money. A girl dating a boy for money will not understand it.” Someone commented, “Financial planning level: CEO salary, college student spending.” Yet another added, “Sensible I’d say – especially if you know surge is expected to be removed when peak demand reduces.”
