So a beer costs 150 and you have 3 beers a day which puts your spending 450 each day and each month at 13500. In one year, it would be approximately 162000 …correct?
Man:
Correct
Woman:
If in 1 year you spend 162000, not accounting for inflation, the past
20 years puts your spending at 32,40,000 correct?
Man:
Correct
Woman:
Do you know that if you didn’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?
