Ballpark around 5K a year, some years more, some years less. I try not to think about if I had instead invested that money as it's a depressing thought. 😅
i spent around 20k in total and i will be spending much more. not upset at all cuz if i measure the impact this had on my well being and financial situation i would say i got atleast a 5x return in both categories.
so instead of looking at the negative sides of spending large amounts of money on this i recommend focusing on the upside and obviously not spending too much on the wrong person.
