Do you drink beer?
Man: Yes
Woman:
How many beers a day?
Man:
Usually about 3
Woman:
How much do you pay per beer?
Man: $5.00 which includes a tip

And how long have you been drinking?
Man:
About 20 years, I suppose

Man:
Correct
Woman:
If in 1 year you spend $5400, not accounting for inflation, the past
20 years puts your spending at $108,000, correct?
Man:
Correct

I can't give you advice since I have no idea what I am doing. Therefore, we revert to actual progress.
