Walt and his wife Amy and two daughters were somehow included in Rock's budgetary considerations. A mutual friend named Jason set up a computer program that calculated their monthly financial allotment, and Rock read the report on an alarm clock in his front bedroom. It said they could spend a total of twenty-six hundred dollars a month drawn from their combined income.
Using a calculator in his den, Rock saw that meant they would have, on average, a little less than eighty-seven dollars a day available to them. He wasn't sure that would be enough, but the alarm continued to sound every few minutes. Rock assumed it was a sign of urgency. It rang at least twice before he turned off its snooze function, which was theretofore unfamiliar to him.
