Three: Add 'em up.
[Private]13.05 * 8 = 104.40 (daily pay)
104.40 * 5 = 522 (weekly pay)
522 - 100 = 422 (average weekly spendings on necessities; gas, food, etc.)
422 - 200 = 222 (average weekly spendings on pointless, but enjoyable shit; pot, beer, clubs, etc.)
222 * 4 = 888 (average monthly salary; 4 weeks to a month)
888 - 100 = 788 (monthly car insurance. fuck that speeding ticket, man.)
788 - 50 = 738 (monthly phone bill)
So, that leaves about...738 dollars in my account at the end of each month. If I keep to this 'budget' of mine, I should be able to afford a new engine for my car, which costs about 1400 dollars, in...
1400 / 738 = 1.9
2 months, if I start putting money aside, and I don't use what's already in my checkings account. But then I need to get a new radiator, which is gonna cost me another 170 bucks, so if I buy that at the end of next month, I'll still have...
738 - 170 = 568
So adding that with May,
738 + 568 = 1306
1400 - 1306 = 94
94 dollars is all I'd have to make up.
I think.
I can't deal with anymore numbers today. This is simple math, but my brain is fucking fried.
[/Private][If Russell's math isn't right...blame the mun.]Shit. My car is going to fucking explode on me one day, but I refuse to get rid of it. That thing's been with me since high school, man, I'm not just gonna sell her! I also need to buy new strings, for my acoustic guitar
and my electric guitar, unless I want them to snap on me at our next gig.
Fuck my life, and the economy.
