To the point, I remember one of those questions on the bottom of the comic. If, you saved a penny the first day and two cents the next, and three cents the next. What would you have at the end of the year. I don't recall how to figure it out any longer but the answer was over a million dollars.

Hum, since my allowance was twenty-five cents a week they never explained where the money would come from after five days.
Ummm, not even close.


More like $667.95


Think of it this way, even on the last day of your yearly savings plan... you're only putting $3.65 in the cookie jar.
