It's such a pain in the ass presenting and justifying budget requests when the people who decide only see $$$. It's always "Why do you need this much? We've been doing fine the last couple of years.". The only way to get them to understand is to talk to them in $$$-speak. Like, "This is the amount of the money and reputation you are risking to lose if something happens because we didn't spend for this."
