I didn’t set these numbers, the other dude did then you backed it up even going so far as to lecture me about how 20k isn’t enough to raise a kid. I completely agree that this is meaningless, but I’m also not going to let 1.2mill suddenly equal 20k/yr raising a kid!

>going so far as to lecture me about how 20k isn’t enough to raise a kid.

i expressed my opinion. You may have different one. Expressing an opinion different than yours isn't "lecturing".

>I’m also not going to let 1.2mill suddenly equal 20k/yr raising a kid!

using S&P500 as the opportunity cost evaluator the 20k/yr results in even more than $1.2M. I don't see what you're arguing about. Do you have a better opportunity cost evaluator than S&P500?

I don’t even know what you’re trying to say anymore mate. Have a good weekend.
