I came across this interesting set of numbers in the Spring issue of Leadership Journal under "Toolkit" on page 62 (quoted from Nancy Gibbs, "One Day in America," Time Magazine 11/26/07).
Every day Americans buy:
3,972,603 movie tickets
1,683,835 songs and albums from online resources
568,764 Titleist golf balls
443,650 large French fries at Burger King
160,968 bottles of Absolut Vodka
7,500 Samsung LCD TVs
As we seek to be effective stewards of our resources, this is a real eye-opener. It's amazing to see how much we spend on entertainment! Blessings, Pastor Bob
