:hmm: They seem like they just want me to donate to their charity.

Nothing gets past that steel trap mind.

Well presumably the costs won't remain minimal throughout their childhood. :P

Yeah but when they get older we get to dump the daycare costs :w00t:

The really big expenses won't occur until after they leave home I expect  :ph34r:

I think they really need to do some sort of price level normalization.  I put in $13,000 USD, which is roughly what a full-time worker at the Federal minimum wage makes after taxes and it returned 12.8%.  There are probably millions of people worldwide making less than that in absolute terms who would have a higher quality of life than this hypothetical person.

My solution was to snaffle an overachieving lawyer who now subsidises my underachieving lifestyle. We're not quite 1% yet in terms of household income, but will be after a few more pay rises for her.

I have done very well out of feminism....

You should meet my boyfriend. You guys seem to have a lot in common.
:lol:

Moldy, they're fishing for donations.  They have no interest in lowering the ranking of prospective donors.

Also interesting how none of these considerations seem to come up when discussing national 1 per centers.  ^_^

Here is another tool - but it makes no provision for size of family at all.

Wait do I enter household or personal income there?

Personal:

You're in the top
0.31%
richest people in the world by income.

That makes you the
18,652,583rd
richest person on earth by income.

Damn the world is poor.

If I was Moldy's hypothetical minimum wage worker.

You're in the top
11.62%
richest people in the world by income.

That makes you the
697,254,427th
richest person on earth by income.

Next single minimum wage working mother of 6 I see I will ask how it feels to be amongst the upper crust.

I assume it is personal. Though how this works with property, I dunno.

Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

Or maybe Marty supplies him with all of his income.
