I read over two dozen financial advice books.
And after a decade of trial and error, I am proud to say that now that I’m nearing 40, I have discovered the secret to strong financial health is simple…
Find a high paying job and do that.
…and no avocado toast, right?
Have you considered having rich parents?
Or write financial advice books.
You’ve read more than 24 financial advice books? What were you thinking during book number 23? That you need to read MORE?
Yes I know this is oniony and that’s why it’s hilarious and I wanted to do the math anyway. My math says that if she hadn’t won £400,000 in the lottery, it would’ve taken her 282 years to save up £400,000 at the rate of saving £1300 every 11 months. Someone please check my math because I am an average C student. How was my math?
If she saves £1,300 every eleven months, how long would it take her to save up £400,000?
Maybe 282 years if you count interest. Otherwise your math is wrong - 400,000/1300 is just under 308 yearsI misread, 11 months not 12
Edit: I checked with 11 months and your math is (basically) correct. 282 years is 399927.27
It’s easy really. Most people just make the seemingly obvious mistake to buy losing tickets, but if you wanna be a winner, just join my WhatsApp group and learn how to become rich!
I’m so happy for her. I guess if she knew she was gonna win the lottery, she wouldn’t’ve had to suffer with packed lunches that rough year.
its sad that I remember something like this from years ago but it was about the guy inheriting some money and it was not from the onion and actually was a story.
