But 10m out of 210m is ~5%. In your case 10m is ~2000% so you can't really compare it. If you do want to compare it, it's like you would loose ~5% out of your yearly salary, so 2.7k out of 54k. The question is, would you prefer to trade in 5% of your income for human safety, or do you prefer people to die?
My point is that ridiculous difference. 10m is a lot of money, yet these people wouldn't actually lose much because what they have left is still so obscenely much more.
