You work 6 days a week?

No but generally its 4.5 weeks in a month if you budget things... you don't use the number 4 weeks every month or 5 weeks every month. Most folks use the 4.5 figure... I didn't feel like doing the math so I took 20 and added a few day :shrug:


By the way, you never answered me about giving me a lift every day Just think Asp, I can blow sweetnothings in your ear for 4 hours a day...

Remember there are 22 working days per month (avg.) when you avg. the long & short months (I know this for payroll purposes).

While I'm sure the space between your ears is a cornucopia of sweet nothings, I must decline your generous offer.

Again, it'd just be another case of me wasting my breath with you.

I think the costs everyone came up with are right. It includes car payment (financing) as well as insurance, taxes, and registration costs, plus vehicle fuel and maintenance.

Sucks, but it's probably on target...

 

[KCM]

I came up with $577.50. That seems high.

I married for love. Next time it will be for money.

$2145 per month for me, based on the 80-mile commute to Reston. Thank God I'm off that project now, but commuting to DC still comes to $1609 a month.
