Well, if you include your time at the DMV, CHP & BAR, then calculate that time at the CA minmum wage of $8.00/hour, then you could get very close to $150K

Oh, and I forgot, you must calculate the time spent on the telephone chasing down and talking to the Golden State Overnight truck driver who was delivering my corrected SB100 certificate (2nd or 3rd Revision, can't remember anymore) to the wrong address.......again.
Nope, you can't calculate that, it's priceless.

In SC that time would translate to about 20 bucks
