i am guessing you agree with the 1 million take now by that reply?

1,000,000 > 0.0001. also got to take into account inflation and interest. also what happens if the bank shuts down before the 30 days?

risk 101.

take the money.

Would take the over 10 mill
It is better to die on your feet, than to live a lifetime on your knees

a coward dies a thousand deaths, a soldier dies but one.

The odds are great
But my spirit is strong,
My faith unbreakable,
My blood is pure.
I SHALL ENDURE!
I WILL ENDURE!

the strength of a gesture, a thought with no voice

yeah questions a bit hard to understand

usually in discounting models we start at day 0 so day 1 is the next day, thought it was 0-30 with 0.01 at day 0.

Not surprised people are saying it's 10 million when they keep saying 1 cent is 0.01, clearly that would be 0.01 cents the clue is in the writing!!!

I know the "obvious" answer is 1 cent per day but doubles. I'd take the 1 million however, because after a month or two, I'd have more than the entire worlds wealth and the world would collapse if they had to keep paying me that much...

edit: nvm it's for 30 days.

1/5 of the people in this thread are giving the right answer
1/5 of the people in this thread are giving the wrong answer
3/5 of the people in this thread are trolling. At least I hope so

I realize it's technically less money, but I'll take the 1 mill in cash, thank you.

I mean, come on, 1 penny, and then you double it, so I have 2 pennies, and then 4 pennies and now 8, 16, 32 pennies and so on.

Do you have any idea how difficult it would be to cash in 536,870,912 pennies? How the hell do you expect me to pay for a new Ferrari with a dumptruck load of pennies?
When the opportunity has arrived,

The time for preparation has past.

Step 1. Sell the pennies for scrap.
Step 2. Pay a 10,000 fine and/or 5 years in prison.

Wow, honestly surprised at all the wrong answers. I thought miscers were on that CEO 10k a day time?
How dare you!

Don't let yourself get attached to anything you are not willing to walk out on in 30 seconds flat if you feel the heat around the corner.

I would take #2 even w/ no penny in the account. Access to some magic bank account that doubles every day?.... I would deposit every single asset I could get my hands on and be a billionaire in (probably less than) a month.
