STUFF MY SAVINGS (skip to 1:15 for stuffing)

Transcript

stuff my savings with me as a financially responsible 18-year-old. Okay, this is all of the money we have to stuff this week. We originally have $572 to stuff this week, but I just got Mexican food, so we're going to recount it so that we have the total amount that we're stuffing today. 100, 120, 140, 160, 180, 200, 220, 240, 260, 280, 300, 320, 340, 360, 380, 400, 420, 440, 460, 480, 500, 520, 540, 560, 572. Okay, after counting, I can confirm that we do have $572 to stuff into our envelopes this week. If you guys are new here, basically what I do is I have 200 envelopes labeled 1 through 200 and I randomly draw an envelope and whatever amount is on the envelope is how much money I put into this envelope. So for example, this one is 18, so I'd put $18 into that envelope. After I fill the envelope, I take the money and I put it into a savings account. Originally 200 envelopes and this basket was completely full, so we are about halfway through filling all 200 envelopes. If you're wondering, all 200 envelopes total out to be $10,100. Let's draw the first envelope. 140. 140, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120. Okay, so we have 120. Next one. 86. 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120. Okay, so we have 120. Next one. 64. 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120. Okay, so we have 120. Next one. 28. 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 90, 100, 110, 120. Okay, so we have 120. Next one. 8. 5, 6, 7, 8. Okay, so we have 8. So far we've gotten almost every single color, no duplicates. So now we have 120, 110, 12, 32, 8. So now we have 10 envelopes. So we have 57, 4, 85, 12, 64, 28, 120, 140, 32, 8. So we have 11 left over. So now I'm just going to go through and try to find lower numbers, but I don't think I have that many lower numbers in here. 41. 10, 20, 30, 40, 41. Okay, so we have 41. 11. Okay, so we have 11. 35. Okay, so we have 35. 8. Okay, so we have 8. We have $11 left over and all I'm going to do is just fold this up and put it right in the crate next time. We stuffed a total of 10 envelopes. So we have 57, 4, 85, 12, 64, 28, 120, 140, 32, 8. Thanks for watching.
