Today Candy, tomorrow stomach ache.

As opposed to what?

Today no food, today and tomorrow stomach ache?

Now what does that mean? $500 is candy? For some it's a lifeline.
It means that getting something you want will not necessarily benefit you.
Which is insane, because it's "need" not "want".
Today rent is due, tomorrow a house stays over a family’s head.
Not necessarily, it's worth at least the experiment.
