YOUR AGE BY CHOCOLATE MATH



This is pretty neat.

DON'T CHEAT BY SCROLLING DOWN FIRST!
It takes less than a minute.
Work this out as you read ...
Be sure you don't read the bottom until you've worked it out!
This is not one of those waste of time things, it's fun.



1. First of all, pick the number of times a week that you would like to
have chocolate
(more than once but less than 10)


2. Multiply this number by 2 (just to be bold)

3. Add 5

4. Multiply it by 50 -- I'll wait while you get the calculator

5. If you have already had your birthday this year add 1756 ....
If you haven't, add 1755.

6. Now, subtract the four digit year that you were born.

You should have a three digit number

The first digit of this was the number of times you really want to eat
Chocolate
(i.e., how many times you want to have chocolate each week).


The next two numbers are

YOUR AGE! (Oh YES, it is!!!!!)



THIS IS THE ONLY YEAR (2006) IT WILL EVER WORK, SO SPREAD IT AROUND WHILE
IT LASTS.

It was off a digit...I said I wanted chocolate 4 times a week and it said I wanted it 3 times a week. But my age was right, how scary is that!
Success is not final, failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts.
