Camera Economics

I'm mostly just pulling numbers from the air to do this math, but I checked them and they aren't too ludicrous, so they're good enough for me.
My camera says I've taken roughly 5,300 pictures. I reset that counter a while back by accident and it had already reached about a thousand. This puts me at roughly 6,300 pictures.
Assuming that a roll of film has 28 frames in it, I've taken 228 rolls' worth of pictures thus far.
Assuming that it costs $2.50 for such rolls of film, and an additional $4 to have each roll developed, I would have spent about $1,490 USD on just development costs. As is, I've spent about $2 on batteries for my external flash and probably about a dollar on power to charge the camera's batteries.
It would be weird to not give this post the "pictures" label, but I'm reserving that for posts that actually have pictures in them, so here's a random picture of me.And while I like that picture, some people (who just might be my parents...) have been bugging me to put up more pictures of me, and that only mostly counts, here's an actual picture of me, though I apparently won't smile, even when I'm taking pictures.

(pointing to action pose) He can smile when he's taking pictures...but only if he holds something in front of his face.

That's a lot of pictures, but I guess I shouldn't be too surprised you've taken that many.
