Lunch Savings Calculator
As I sit here eating my cheap "brown bag" lunch here as always at work,
I thought I would calculate the small forture I have amassed by eating like
this (besides the fact that I get extra time to program and surf the Net!)
My default investment return is 10.5% (the 70 year average for the S&P 500).
I won't even mention the 20+% returns of late, but I will let you increase the
return up to 50% for fun.
Have fun!
Yield must be between 4 and 50 % with default of 10.5%
