Whenever I learn about some expense, I apply it as a unit of measure to other things, such as: This iPod costs about 4 pairs of jeans. Usually what is at the forefront of my mind is things that I want to buy. Currently it's plane tickets to Thailand, where I'll be going in about 4 months. Which I'm now applying to other things, such as 3 tickets to Thailand = one year of Whitman. Eeek.
$2,300: The grant money I get for the internship I'm doing this summer.
$54,086: One year of Whitman
$54,000: Amount of Money owed by Bob Catsiff because of fines towards the mural outside of his toy store, at $100 dollars a day for more than a year.
