Well, as we know we do spend money differently with that savings windfall!
My calculations weren't totally off --similar to his: http://thirdwavecyclingblog.wordpres...nto-my-wallet/My Personal blog on cycling & other favourite passions.

I've been lurking on his blog forums for quite some time now. I'm always interested in frugal living discussions.

I'm actually reading it straight through from his first post. I'm almost to the end of 2011-- he started writing in April of 2011. Gosh he writes a lot! But I'm really enjoying it.
