Fkn lmao @ the degenerative mathcels ITT

The process is called salami slicing and it was explained in the movie Office Space.

You put a fraction of a penny in your bank account and wake up next day with six figures, so 100k * 30 days > 1 million

lol @ autistic *******s who dont realize that if you invest the million straight away, it would easily hit 5 million by the end of 30 days. Imagine you actually did some research, you would most likely be pulling $10 million at the end of the month, plus you would get to spend any income generated by your money as opposed to penny ****s who have to wait 30 days before they can do anything. What if you get hit by a car in that time?

exponents.. how do they work.
Don't get set into one form, adapt it and build your own, and let it grow, be like water. Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless, like water. Now you put water in a cup, it becomes the cup; You put water into a bottle, it becomes the bottle; You put it in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend. - Bruce Lee

I'd take the million and then exchange it for gold. Usually with the misc there's always some catch be it tranny or in this case probably the dollar value tanking. So unless I can have the penny's worth exchanged to equal amount of gold and have that doubled each day then I'm out.

"To answer a question, you must first ask yourself a question." - Albert Einstein

"Questions are the true wisdom of mankind" - Abraham Lincoln.

There's only 1 cent in the account, you're being given double that value every day, which is 2 cents. You get given that 2 cents every day so 2 x 30 is 60 cents, do you people not know how banks work? Do you seriously think a bank is going to give you 10 million dollars just because you given them ONE CENT, I think they're being pretty generous giving out 2 cents you wouldn't find that in the UK we get like 5% annually...

2^30=1073741824 cents. Divide by 100 to get dollars, that is 10737418 dollars, or around 10.7 million dollars.
So you're asking if I'd rather have 1 million or 10.7? Yea uhm, gonna go with the second option.
