Fun with Math 2

Welcome back, I've once again saddled up, strapped on my good ol' Thinkin' Cap, and decided to crunch some numbers... this week's topic at large: Overall Beer Consummation to Date. I like beer, I like beer alot and recently while grasping tightly to one of those beautiful, cylindrical bottles I started thinking "wow, just how many of these have I actually drank?" So using some of my newly acquired skills I learned while writing "Cellular Daze" I set off to work...

I really didn't start drinking til I was around 20 yrs old (and didn't turn professional until I started dating Jamie) so we begin our estimates there. I would guess that I have at least one beer per day every day and then of course you have to factor in that not so rare occasion when I have like 15+ (I mean last night was a pretty laid back evening and I had around 9) So how exactly do you get a educated guess at the overall number? Simple, with my patented Beertastic Formula: Y = 2.3(365) + X To those of you not as brilliant in math as myself that is in layman's terms: yearly total is equal to 2.3 beers a day times 365 plus extra yearly beer bonus, see told ya, Simple! Now let’s do the Math!
2.3(365) equals 839.5 and X should start at 0 and increase yearly by 30... so starting at year21 and going to month2 of year26... And are Total is 4643.5 bottles of beers on the wall! (talk about one hellva song to keep the kids busy during a long road trip) So how actuate are these numbers really? Honestly I couldn't tell you but as large as that number is, it really sounds about right. (especially after you factor in all those draft beer pitchers I've chugged down)

So now lets have some more fun "how much did that beer cost me?" Divide 4644 by 12 and you have yourself 387 twelve packs at an estimated averaged price of $15 (factoring in imports and those bar draft prices with tips) and that dollar amount is $5805. Really not as bad of a price tag as I expected for 5 whole fun-filled beer-soaked years! Tune in next time on Fun with Math when we attempt to figure out exactly how many dumps I've taken in my entire life... see ya then!
