I don't generally post fluff or filler posts but lately something has been bugging me. It's a term we've all seen or heard and in some cases said or typed and I can't stand it.......
"FOR THE MONEY"
You know:
It was the best car available, FOR THE MONEY.
FOR THE MONEY that hot dog tasted just as good as a Porterhouse would have.
They might not all be the prettiest but, FOR THE MONEY, the girls at Deja Vu get the job done just like Scores girls.
I mean... in my mind either something performs the task you need it to do or it doesn't. The money part is irrelevant.
So it leaves me to question, are those people using the term FOR THE MONEY buying something that isn't meeting their needs or is it meeting their needs but because there are more expensive products that meet that need they feel the need to acknowledge it? Why downplay what you've purchased by saying that?
Now don't confuse the term FOR THE MONEY with other terms I've lost sleep over
COST vs VALUE or heaven forbid WORTH
Those can drive you insane. Just stay with me.... FOR THE MONEY..... WTF does it mean?
