    Damn, he's even catered for leap years
    My only concern is should I hide my true identity? A costume maybe?

    scaryjim: 10" is just a little large to hold comfortably in one hand, which makes it a lot harder to tap, swipe and generally interact with.

    Lucky guy! But then at the rate of £20 a session that's £220 a day!

    Re: £20

    Check a few posts later where Tiggerai pointed the interest out. It actually says that it's about £1m interest, so I put the estimate at about 8-a-day without completely recalculating.

    Anyway, I was just picking cos I was bored!

    1) The correct stock investments would have made you >>10% p.a. on average over the last 30 years.

    2) Please stop bumping old threads. It's rather annoying. Especially when you're not adding anything interesting.

    Re: £20

    haha... me and a colleague were discussing this today... how we're not paying into pensions as we can't afford the cash, even though we're throwing away the companies contribution at the mo.

    I could make good money with an "extra job" on the side... haha

    It's a shame we keep bumping into each other... I guess Hexus is quite a small place, though, so it's inevetable. (Laughs, again.)

    Anyway, please keep on saying the rude things about me - gives me a much needed laugh. (That was the first laugh, btw.)

    Perhaps over the course of a decade or two, it could start to get annoying, so maybe one day you will get through - never give up hope, eh, Schmuck?

    Sincerely looking forward to your next insult, MC2... a.k.a. baius.

    (Oh, and, have a nice day.)

    I'm sorry, please could you point out where in my post I said anything rude about you?

    Oh, aren't you a card, shame that the name schmunk has absolutely nothing to do with my real name. Never mind, eh?

    Sincerely looking forward to your next insult, MC2... a.k.a. baius.

    (Oh, and, have a nice day.)
    No, you're insincerely looking forward to my first insult.

    Re: £20

    Isnt there a different version of this joke where the husband pays the wife £1 per "episode", and when they break open the jar they find £2 coins, £5-50 notes etc. The wife when questioned says that the others were more generous than the husband.

    Re: £20

    reminds me of the gag where a wife goes walking the streets out of desperation to help out her & her husband's dire finances, comes home with £20.50 & he asks who gave you 50p? answer = everyone.
    i don't know why i'm helping keep this thread going as it's bringing on my maths allergy. don't anyone ask me how long it takes someone to fill a bath at x gallons a min if it's leaking at something or other rate and 2 men can fill it y times faster, will you....

    omg i've just seen 'another brain teaser' and was practically sick. make it stop..
