I ran the numbers dad. We can afford a pony
As a child, the idea of owning a pony was a dream come true. The thought of having a beautiful, majestic animal to call my own was something that filled me with excitement and joy. However, I knew that owning a pony was a big responsibility and required a significant amount of money. So, when I approached my dad with the statement, "I ran the numbers dad. We can afford a pony," I was met with a mix of surprise and skepticism.My dad, being the practical and financially responsible person that he is, was understandably cautious about the idea of adding a pony to our family. He knew that owning a pony would not only require an initial investment in purchasing the animal, but also ongoing expenses for food, shelter, veterinary care, and other necessities. As a parent, he wanted to make sure that we were able to afford all of these costs without putting a strain on our family's finances.
So, when I presented him with the numbers that I had carefully calculated, including the cost of purchasing a pony, monthly expenses, and potential unexpected costs, he was impressed by my thoroughness and attention to detail. I had taken into account all of the potential expenses and had come up with a plan to ensure that we could afford to care for a pony without sacrificing our financial stability.
After reviewing the numbers and discussing the idea further, my dad and I came to a mutual agreement that owning a pony was indeed feasible for our family. We made a budget, set aside a savings fund for any unexpected expenses, and began researching potential ponies to bring into our family.
Owning a pony has been a wonderful experience for our family. Not only has it brought me immense joy and fulfillment, but it has also taught me valuable lessons about responsibility, budgeting, and the importance of careful planning when it comes to managing money. I am grateful to my dad for trusting me and supporting my dream of owning a pony, and I will always cherish the memories that we have created together with our beloved animal.
