Introduction : Seeing Netflix's $24.99 monthly fee got me curious, so I did a quick calculation of the lifetime cost. Honestly, I was pretty shocked! It really made me realize how those small monthly subscriptions add up over time. Just a friendly reminder to think about the long-term cost of our favorite services!

Visualization Created for Carrie: Carrie, age 22, spends $24.99/month on Netflix. This visualization projects the cost, adjusted for 3% annual inflation, through his lifetime.

Comparison: The following calculation is derived from the average lifetime performance of four established funds, each with a track record exceeding 30 years.

I hope this was helpful for you to visualize it . Pay attention to your little spending as it costs millions.
