• Raising a child from a middle income U.S. family from birth to 18 is estimated at $160,140 not including college tuition. That translates into $8,896.66 a year, $741.38 a month, or $171.08 a week, a mere $24.24 a day, and just over a dollar an hour.
• In one day the average adult speaks 48,000 words, exercises seven million brain cells, takes 23,000 breaths, laughs 15 times, and his/her heart beats 104,000 times!
