Woman:



Do you drink beer?



Man: Yes



Woman:



How many beers a day?



Man:



Usually about 3



Woman:



How much do you pay per beer?



Man: $5.00 which includes a tip



(This is where it gets scary !)



Woman:



And how long have you been drinking?



Man:



About 20 years, I suppose



Woman:



So a beer costs $5 and you have 3 beers a day which puts your spending each month at $450. In one year, it would be approximately $5,400 Â…correct?



Man:



Correct



Woman:



If in 1 year you spend $5,400, not accounting for inflation, the past



20 years puts your spending at $108,000, correct?



Man:



Correct



Woman:



Do you know that if you didnÂ’t drink so much beer, that money could have been put in a step-up interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 20 years, you could have now bought a Ferrari?



Man:



Do you drink beer?



Woman:



No



Man:



WhereÂ’s your Ferrari?
