AWS EC2 Reserved Instance

I just paid over two hundred dollars for a “reserved instance.” Now to my understanding this was supposed to a Virtual Private Server sitting on the elastic compute cloud. Something I could SSH into and something that would expand and contract as needed in terms of CPU, Storage, and Bandwidth.

We’ll paying for it was easy. But I have no idea how to even access what I just paid for!

They provide ZERO support (forums and other useless ways to drain your time) and if you want real help you have to pay for it.

So far I am super dissatisfied with my purchase. Now I have to sit and google “how to launch a reserved instance” and hope I find something useful.
