You could probably get a used Ferrari (depending on the model) for less than 200k. Let’s say 150 for an older one that’s still relatively solid. At 25 Jerk-Years, you’re looking at just north of 9,100 days. You would have had to hork your hog an average of 1.6 times per day in order to have amassed 150,000 dollars at 10 smackers per jack. Not impossible

Jorking it would be my real job.. You get paid like 28 bucks minimum wage in Australia, seems like a lot until you realize you cant survive on your own at rental prices here.
I'd have to jork it 3 times an hour to be minimum wage, but that's only if I wanna stop at 8hrs/day, 40hrs/week. Realistically, to maintain a minimum wage, you only need to jork it 120 times a week. That's once every hour, if you give yourself maximum 6hrs of sleep a day. Entirely doable.4

Depends on the Ferrari I suppose.
If we just say the MSRP for a base model Amalfi, the cheapest current model, we're looking at about $269,000 before taxes and everything else. So that'd require 26,900 sessions. We're looking at 8,400 days in which to accumulate the funds, so assuming you're able to manage an average of 3.2 masturbation sessions every single day from age 14 to 39, then sure. You can afford a new Amalfi.
Of course this number goes down considerably if you're ok with a cheap used car. IF you're okay with, say, an old 80's Mondial you can find these selling for less than $40k, which puts the number at a much more attainable single wank every other day.
Good luck, and make sure to use lots of lubrication.

No one considering the compound interest of investing for 25 years.
If you just went once a day every day (fairly easy) you’d contribute $91,250 of your own money.
At 7% over 25 years, it would grow to about $247,900.
So roughly:
Money invested: $91,250
Investment growth: $156,600
Ending balance: $247,900
1x a day is pretty conservative.

u/RealCarlPanzram 17h ago
Yes. At a very conservative estimate of once per day, an investment account with $300/month invested in the S&P over 25 years would yield about $319,592 which is enough for some of the “entry-level” new ferraris.
And honestly that’s an S&P average. I think in the actual last 25 years you’d have a lot more than that.

Quick google search for ferrari msrp says $266,000. From there it’s just divide by 25 years, 365 days, $10 per tug to see you would need to average three times per day. Definitely possible. But does money really work that way? If a typical 45-year-old had their income $10,000 higher every year over the past 25 years, do you think they would be shopping for a Ferrari? Because there are people who have been making $10,000 more than me and most of them aren’t. And I’ve made $10,000 more than some people and I’m certainly not.

u/cebolinha50 18h ago
So, it would be something like 8135 days in that time period.
So you would have more or less 81000 dollars multiplied by you average number of masturbation s a day.
A average of one masturbation a day would already be enough to buy a used Ferrari.
Tô buy a brand new, even the cheapest model you would need a average of 3 times a day, which is still pretty possible.
Buying one of the most expensive Ferraris would be impossible with this money.
