The real costs ....

[kelso]

I recently visited a fabulously special and gorgeous lady in Limerick and I was thinking about the hidden costs of 'countrywide' visits.
It was a 600km round trip with a fuel consumption of 7.78km/litre which equates to €110, the bottle of wine in this case was €22, parking another €8, not to mention wear and tear on the vehicle, tax and insurance ............ it piles on doesnt it!
However, one of the reasons she is fabulously special is that she 'appreciates' the effort I made to see her ......

What are your hidden costs?

never did a cost benefit analysis like this mn, but then i dont often make long trips!

My hidden costs include separation and a second home.

Occasionally a bottle of wine, usually in €10-€15 category.

Not sure why you're all laughing. Bastards :-)

Perhaps you could advise me on suitable cost allocation models?

With parking at €8, I guess you didn't get much change out of €600 for the direct cost !

So €110 on petrol, €22 on wine, €8 on parking, €200 on appointment = €300 But the memories are priceless
