Frequently asked questions

How does a small daily expense turn into a large yearly number?+

The calculator multiplies your daily spend by 365 (or your actual frequency), and because compounding of small numbers over a full year is easy to underestimate mentally, even a $5 daily habit becomes over $1,800 a year.

Should I use 365 days or account for days I skip the habit?+

Use your realistic frequency rather than assuming every single day — if you only buy coffee out on weekdays, multiply by roughly 260 days a year instead of 365 for an accurate figure.

Does this calculation include the opportunity cost of not investing that money?+

The base yearly total is just the sum of what you'd spend; a separate investment growth calculation would show that money invested instead can compound to significantly more than the simple yearly total over many years.

Why is this useful even if I don't plan to quit the habit?+

Seeing the true yearly cost helps you make an informed trade-off rather than an uninformed one — you might decide the habit is worth it, but the number lets you weigh it against other things that yearly amount could buy.

How accurate do I need to be about the daily cost?+

Use your actual average price paid, including tips or add-ons, rather than a base menu price, since habitual purchases often creep upward in price over time and the base price alone understates the true daily cost.
