Lady: Do you smoke?
Man: Yes
Lady: How many packs a day?
Man: 3 packs
Lady: How much per pack
Man: £6.00
Lady: And how long have you been smoking?
Man: 15 years
Lady: So 1 pack cost £6.00 and you have 3 packs a day which puts your spending each month at £540. In one year, it would be £6,840 correct?
Man: Correct
Lady: If in 1 year you spend £6,840 not accounting for inflation, the past 15 years puts your spending at £97,200.00 correct?
Man: Correct
Lady: Do you know that if you hadn’t smoked, that money could have been put in an interest savings account and after accounting for compound interest for the past 15 years, you could have now bought an Aston Martin vantage..?
Man: Do you smoke?
Lady: No
Man: Where’s your Aston Martin then?
