BACKSTORY:
BACKSTORY: Got up around 8:15 AM, made it out driving by 8:44 AM, and went out up until ~ 12:45 PM, for a total of 4 hours. Used $33.35 plus ~$ 8.37 gas for 47.1 miles of driving (16.4 mpg @ $2.94/ G), for an overall expense of $41.72. We drove to 59 garage sale, stopping at 23 (39%) of them. We made 24 purchases (27 items) for a total estimated value of $235.08, causing a profit/savings of $193.36. So in essence, we multiplied our $41.72 investment by 5.63 X. (Likewise, if you consider it, the profit counts for a lot more when you consider that we need to earn $~ 220 on the job, pre-tax, in order to take house the $193 in money that we saved. For how long does $220 of disposable income require to make, vs the 4 hrs we invested here?) Anyway, this exercises to a * post-tax * “wage” of $48.25/ hr as a couple or $24.13/ hr per individual.
