Context - you either gain or lose some money. Is $50 a lot of money to you? $100? At what point does money start to become a lot of money to you?

I was out of work for a while a few years ago and it made me appreciate every pound that i had in my pocket. I now have a well paid job but still raise my eyebrows at the price of food in some restaurants. Being forced to be careful with money has made me reluctant to waste as much on a meal as I'd spend on a whole week's worth of groceries, £50 is still a lot of money to me if spent unwisely.

I recently lost $40k after I pulled out of a business contract. I know it’s a lot of money, but the partner had a history of doing sloppy work so it saved me from further damages. So it depends. Considering the longterm effect, it wasn’t a lot of money though it was a lot at that instant.

I guess it's always perspective ,if someone can't afford to lose $25 dollars even it be too much to lose .

Like most Americans, I live paycheck to paycheck. Any gain or loss over about $20 is something to be considered.

At this stage, $50 is more than I can really afford to lose. $100 is groceries or an electric bill.

Hmm, I begin thinking about it at about $100, but it has to be $1000 or more for me to seriously reconsider spending it.

I would say $500

$1000 is alot, anything under that is a common household fix these days

I'm on a fixed disability income, every dollar is a lot to me.
