Man, this might get the anxiety flowing for anyone out there that ever did something similar to this as a kid. It's funny and unfortunate that as kids we're all just led along, sometimes down the wrong routes, due to our overwhelming curiosity. The lesson here is obviously to not stare at the sun! And if you have any kids, make sure they're not doing something similar to this! 

They said with this whole "free market" thing that we should be getting good products or services at a reasonable prices, but sometimes that's just not the case. Other times, you get what you pay for. Sometimes a company is having a bad day, and other times it's just common knowledge that you won't be getting a good steak from the dollar store. Other than products, there are things people did that made them say "never again."

Those location services will get you. This guy certainly learned an unfortunate life lesson. All in all, this is actually terrifying. Glad that his mom was around to handle the situation. 

It's hard for many of us to consider spending an entire paycheck on a cake or an ice maker, but when you think of all the money you spend on things that you don't even remember, maybe it's worth it to have a pleasant memory. While these ended up being decent expenses, some people get some extremely bad financial advice that is irredeemable. It'd be nice to have a taste of these absurdly expensive things people witnessed.
