I accidentally bought a $8AUD schooner of beer the other night instead of a cider and I wanted to die. I can't imagine multiplying that a thousand times.

Please. Just think what the less fortunate could have done with every dollar you've ever spent on video games/comics/insert-hobby-here. You also know nothing about my charity work/donations, so take a hike.
No sorry your waste is on another level. It's embarrassing. You should feel bad.

Just 8.5k a year is a waste. You could have actually made a difference.

Any real standouts during it? I usually go to my local craft shop every Sunday and try something new. And I don't think I'll approach those numbers, but I feel you on the cost. This one (nice, but nothing exceptional) was £4.95 and they had new ones in for £7.50(!!!). An enjoyable, but increasingly expensive hobby.

Nice OP, what kind of beer do you like? I dont understand how you pay $20 bucks a day on beer though.

Maybe he contributed much more to charity over the years, who knows!

Sounds like an incredibly unhealthy lifestyle. You should of spent it on coaching, physical training, etc. Much better investment.

I don't think so. I will have 2-3 pints after work maybe 3 times a week, then usually one bigger session (5-6) pints at the weekend. I still feel this is less the average pub-going male drank when I was living in the UK. Also I live in Asia and craft beer is really expensive here (quite often over $10 a pop)
That's seems like a pretty excessive amount when applied over the course of years.

You're math or intake is wrong then.

- Spending $27 a day on beer
- Apparently have 11-15 a week (you suggested 2-3 on 3 weeknights / 5/6 weekend)
- Sometimes as much as $10 per beer (top end)

Does not compute. Even at the top, most expensive end you are buying the equivalent of 2.7 a day - 19 a week so sounds like you are really going to be nearer to 25. Over 3 a day.

So either lying about the amount spent or the consumption - hopefully the amount consumed as if you are consuming 3 a day thats incredibly unhealthy. We need to investigate further you're claims and perhaps commission a study

$30k on beers each more disgusting than the one before.

Bulk lager for me. But only $30 a year.

I haven't had a single alcoholic beverage in over a year. Nor have I ever had a craft beer I don't think. Me and OP have nothing in common. Hope you are enjoying yourself though.
