Who cares? You only got $1,100 back last year. Getting as close to zero as possible is a waste of time.

Time value of money

Do tell, what is the time value of that extra $900? Really it’s only $900 at year end so it averages out

Well technically the $45 is a ‘waste’ in his budget but ya

What does he have to give up to reduce $45 in his budget elsewhere?

Talking a mere minutes for $45

Except that he's not really getting a 10% return. He's probably getting a 1% return in his savings account. IOW $4.50.
