Would you rather want to take a Penny that doubles every day for 30 days or 400k per day for 30 days?

>> No.10461099

>>10461082
theyre about the same

>> No.10461107

>>10461082
so first option would net you $5,368,709.12 (assuming that the entire sum of pennies doubles) while the second would net you $12,000,000
how is this even a question, i dont want almost 2 million pounds of pennies laying around

the melt down value of the penny is over 2.5 cents so you would get more with the pennies.

>> No.10461518

Fuck I'd take whatever man

$5,368,709.12 * 2.5 = $1,342,1772,8
>going through the trouble of melting and selling that shit
nah i'll take the $12 million thanks, plus you get 400k on day 1 instead of waiting

It’s illegal to melt pennies and sell the scrap. At that volume you would 100% get a knock on your door from the secret service

I'd rather take 400k every day for 30 days because of Time Value of Money.

You know that pretty soon you will have 1trillion, next day 2trillion etc etc.

The entire world economy would be debased. Everything would hyperinflate. Gallon of milk costs 4$ next day 8$ next day 16$ and within an month an glass of milk will cost 100million$

Getting a job and working would be pointless. The world would literally stop turning and almost everyone would die horribly.

Either way, the FED will ask questions.

At least I would be able to explain 400k better than copper out of thin air. I don't want some three letter agency probing me any more than they already do because of ayy lmao.
