EJ | Would you rather have a million...? |
Would you rather have a million dollars right now? (no taxes) or have a penny doubled every day for a month?
(I know the answer - just wondering how many more out there will figure it out?!!) |

I wonder how much taxes the IRS would take out of $1,073,741,824.00...? (31-day month) |
|

Oh the penny- of course! -Problem IS, carrying those sacks & sacks of pennies off to the bank at the end of the month- is NOT going to be a picnic. PLUS, there's no guarantee the bank will take them (whereas the million $ check- they'll have NO problem with!). So you place your bets & takes your chances... :) |

Penny doubled every day for a month is a lot more money. |
|

double the pennies, although i dont know how much that comes to- my calculator stopped after 54,001,664 pennies |
|

I'd take the penny doubled every day for a month.
In the case of a 30 day month, you'll have $10,737,418.24.
In the case of a 31 day month, you'll have $21,474,836.48.
And of course to keep things interesting, if the month was February, you'd have $2,684,354.56 if it was a non leap-year, and $5,368,709.12 if it was a leap year (29 days).
Much better than a million bucks. |

i want the penny deal cuz if there are 31 days in a month i would get $10,737,418.24! RIGHT??? unless i did my math wrong!! lol! |
|
Bea
|
The latter. And that'll be 536,870,912 pennies for me! If I do that on a 30-day month, that is. |

The penny doubled every day for a month would probably add up to more than a mil but I'll go with the million right now...tax free. |
|

 |
hummm... but there's taxes on the pennies right?
figures... always a catch. |

A penny doubled every day for a month (no taxes) since it would be significantly more than 1 million dollars. |

Are you talking about COMPOUNDED INTEREST, like 1+1=2...2+2=4....4+4=8...8+8=16 ...and so on, yeah , good idea...but I rather have a million dollars right now. |
