Lunch Savings Calculator
As I sit here eating my cheap "brown bag" lunch here as always at work (Yeah Right!),
I thought I would calculate the small fortune I have amassed by eating like this.
The default investment return is a reasonable 5.0% (although you can try 10.5%, the 70 year average for the S&P 500).
You can even increase the return up to 50% for fun.
Have fun!
Yield must be between 2 and 50 % with default of 5.0%
