I bought a $2500 guitar on sale for $2000. Saved $500 right there. It didn’t work out, so I returned it. That means I saved another $2000 and along with the other $500 saved I can now buy the $3000 amp I want but couldn’t afford, which will now only cost $500. What a deal!

Mathematics was created by dead white men—can’t blame Congress for ignoring it... :-)

There’s no magic to it. If you look hard enough, far down the road is a cloud of pixie dust. All we have to do is keep kicking the can down the road until we reach the cloud. This is not a matter of magic. It’s a matter of religious faith.
