This question came to my mind over the last 3 days. I've looked into my daily behaviour and found out that with $ 0.016 per day or the same amount in other currencies (EUR 0,018 for us Europeans) I can:
Once a month 1. Go to the movies (alone, without popcorn & drinks) 2. Have a Döner w/ one Ayran (turkish dish and drink) 3. Buy a stein of beer at the Oktoberfest (5 years ago) 4. Go 20 miles by train 5. Have a small breakfast in a diner 6. Buy 8 bottles of milk 7. Buy 2 loafs of bread 8. Buy 1.5 packs of cigarrettes 9. Buy one cigar (medium quality) If I save my $5 for one year I can 1. Pay half the insurance of my car 2. Buy a nice sweater/shirt/Levis 3. Buy a SuSE Distro (arrghhh!) 4. Buy 3 books 5. Go to a rock concert Or I can support MandrakeSoft. This paper from MandrakeSoft about the Club doesn't ask for a donation from ppl who have to go on $60 a week! It doesn't ask for money from a guy who can get around just so. It asks this small fee from ppl who earn a decent living an have their $5-bills just to tip the bell boy. I don't see a serious hole in my budget if I have $60 less this year. I just skip 1.5 packs of cigarrettes per month (!) and that's it. Save 3 cents every second day and that's what MandrakeSoft asks for.
