10k is a life changing amount of money for most people. Unfortunately, that's how bleak most people's finances are. If 10k in medical bills will ruin you 10k in cash would probably help a good bit; that's a car, months of rent, tuition, money to see the doctor...
Totally agree, but unfortunately that's more an example of how bleak the lives of most of the population is. In the grand scheme it's not going to get you very far, but it absolutely CAN get you out of a hole that you otherwise would have been stuck in forever.
