Beer drinking logic

[Alan Mclennan]

A man was walking out of a bottle shop with a slab of beer when he was accosted by a well dressed lady with a handful of religious temperance flyers. She tried to get him to take one but he politely refused, at which point she engaged the man with a barrage of questions.
Temperance Lady: Do you drink every day?
Man: Yes.
Temperance Lady: How much a day?
Man: One carton every day starting at noon.
Temperance Lady: How much does a Carton cost?
Man: About $30 if you shop around.
Temperance Lady: And how long have you been drinking like that?
Man: 15 years.
Temperance Lady: So with a carton costing $30 you are spending roughly $900 each month. In one year, you would then be spending $10,800, correct?
Man: Correct.
Temperance Lady: If in 1 year you spend $10,800 on beer, not accounting for inflation, 15 years puts your spending roughly $162,000; correct?
Man: Correct.
Temperance Lady: Did it ever occur to you that if you did not drink for the last 15 years, you could have bought a Ferrari?
Man: Do you drink?
Temperance Lady: No.
Man: So where's your f...n' Ferrari?

A slab of beer? Must be another of the Oz terms.
