An Argument Between A Husband And Wife

Wife: Do you drink beer?
Husband: Yes
Wife: How many beers a day?
Husband: Usually about three
Wife: How much do you pay per beer?
Husband: $5.00 which includes a tip (this is where it gets scary!)
Wife: And how long have you been drinking?
Husband: About 20 years, I suppose
Wife: So a beer costs $5 and you have three beers a day which puts your spending each month at $450. In one year, it would be approximately
$5400 correct?
Wife: Correct
Wife: If in 1 year you spend $5400, not accounting for inflation, the past 20 years puts your spending at $108,000 correct?
Husband: Correct
Wife: 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 an airplane?
Husband: Do you drink beer?
Wife: No.
Husband: Where is your airplane?
