Write down your house number or your telephone number or the total amount of the coins in your pocket.
Multiplythis by 2.
To this add 5.
Multiplythat by 50.
Then add your age.
Now add 365 (days in year).
Then subtract 615.
The last two numbers will be your age, and the other numbers will be your house address, total amount of coins in your pocket or whatever you decided upon.
