Ever wonder what it would cost to give every gift from the song, The Twelve Days of Christmas?
Every year someone manages to figure it out. This year (2013) according to PNC Wealth Management the cost breaks down as follows:
— Partridge, $15;
— Pear tree, $189.99;
— Two turtle doves, $125;
— Three French hens, $165;
— Four calling birds (canaries), $519.96;
— Five gold rings, $750;
— Six geese a-laying, $210;
— Seven swans a-swimming, $7,000;
— Eight maids a-milking, $58;
— Nine ladies dancing (per performance), $6,294;
— 10 lords a-leaping (per performance), $4,767;
— 11 pipers piping (per performance), $2,562;
— 12 drummers drumming (per performance), $2,776;
Wow! But I don’t know about those Maids a Milking… $58.00 seems a little low even at minimum wage.
