As if you even knew the whole situation based on a few sentences from a blog. My mother in law was diagnosed with stage 4 liver cancer several months ago. She had been undergoing chemotherapy since she was diagnosed and seemed to be handling it fairly well. Did you know we talked with her about the cruise when she was diagnosed and she was very adamant that we still go on it? Of course not. It was while we were on the cruise that she took a turn for the worse and went into liver failure. Did you know we called her from the ship and she was still insistent that we continue the cruise instead of leaving the ship and flying back to her? Of course not. Do you have any idea how emotionally upsetting it is to be told by your own mother not to come see her when three other daughters all got to go? Of course not. When we got back in to the states, we went directly to her home instead of back to ours and my wife stayed with her and her father for a week. She just passed away today. So before you post another comment, why don't you pull your holier-than-thou head out of your ass and stop to think that maybe you don't have even the slightest inkling of the whole picture. Thanks for your concern, asshole.Shaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05654897560778650994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800674.post-44553794781821951092008-06-12T08:17:00.000-07:002008-06-12T08:17:00.000-07:00Oops..

See in both parts you sq m is on the bottom, but to cancel out it needs to be on the top, so you need to use sq m/sq ft NOT sq ft per sq m. .0929 NOT 10.76. <BR/><BR/>Use this and redo the math. <BR/><BR/>Now you get $1,792 per square foot. The REAL answer. <BR/><BR/>Jason Dragon<BR/>http://blog.capitalactive.com/Jasonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12483603494726164338noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800674.post-52302234903832971262008-06-11T18:31:00.000-07:002008-06-11T18:31:00.000-07:00Bah shows what I know :-DBah shows what I know :-Ddanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15310776713869110997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800674.post-10863612101529818062008-06-11T14:23:00.000-07:002008-06-11T14:23:00.000-07:00Nope. First, it was 30,000 euro, not 3,000. Second...Nope. First, it was 30,000 euro, not 3,000. Second, your euro conversion is off. 1 Euro = 1.5551 US dollars (or, to put it in your terms, 0.6430 dollars / euro). 1 square meter = 10.7639104 square feet (which is just another way of stating your conversion factor). 30000 euro / sq m * 10.7639104 sq ft / sq m * 0.6430 dollar / euro = 502,168 dollars / sq ft.Shaunhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05654897560778650994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7800674.post-86694657220847418212008-06-11T10:57:00.000-07:002008-06-11T10:57:00.000-07:00I think maybe you're off a decimal point3000 euros...I think maybe you're off a decimal point<BR/><BR/>3000 euros / m^2 * (.03048 m/foot)^2 * .15527 dollars / euro <BR/><BR/>= $4327 / square foot.<BR/><BR/>Which of course is still expensive - 1000 sq ft is 4.3 milliondanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15310776713869110997noreply@blogger.com
