$64,000 in Gas....

"Okay- so I had to look into this. If you plan on driving a car that
gets about 30 miles to the gallon, and gas is $3.00 per gallon and
you guesstimate the distance around the earth to be about 24,900
miles you could drive around the earth 25 and 1/2 times for $64,000.
Just thought I would share.

Now you can drive back in forth to Indy from Fishers 5 days a week
for an entire year and it will cost you about $2340.

LOL! So here's the back story.......B* saw a job posting of a position available very similar to what he does now and decided why not look into it. So he was given the impression yesterday to name his price and they would try to accommodate him because he's more than qualified- because the job is located near the airport the commute is NOT appealing- so he wanted to see what the cost of gas would be with a 45min drive each way verses the 5-10min drive he has right now.....well somehow while running the numbers we came to the conclusion that if he were to take this job it would cost $64,000 in gas which is $50,000 more than we are paying right now?! Well, we both sat there last night rerunning the numbers and decided that if he were to take this position than we would have to relocate because there's NO WAY we will spend that much! So this morning at the end of bible study during our praises/prayer requests I ask that the other moms pray that we make the right decision.......and as I am trying to convince them that yes it will indeed cost $64,000 in gas I realize that in our mathematical equation B*'s car will only average 1 mile per gallon:) Ha ha ha- I know I will never live this down:) That's ok- I am a natural blond but you know at least you can count on me for a good laugh.....now B*- yeah we should be worried about him!
