lol r u guys legit fkin retarded?? obv u would take the mil u idiots lmao

its simple math jesus:

so u have 1 penny and it doubles every day for 30 days

u can write that as 1x(2) = 30

(1x is the peny, and 2 is the fact it doubles each day, and the =30 means it does that for 30 days)

from their it's simple alegebra

1x(2) = 30

2x = 30

2x / 2 = 30 / 2

ur left with x = 15

so u would have 15 pennies compared to 1 million dollars, sounds like an easy decision to me

Id take the full mill upfront, and flip it. will be worth a lot more than your measly 10m by day 30.

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...

I would take $1,000,000 up front then deposit into the fancy account that doubles for 30 days. I would be worth 1.07 Quadrillion and pursue world domination. I would kill anyone with better aesthetics than me and would make all the other men and ugly women slaves and all the worlds HBBs would become my sex slaves.

Your life will never be a straight path.”
“To not only take risks, but to be open to life. To accept new views and to be open to new opinions. While it may be frightening, it will also be rewarding. Because the chances you take… the people you meet… the people you love…the faith that you have—that’s what’s going to define your life.”
“And when you fall throughout life, fall forward.”

That million dollar can buy me many amazing experiences while I'm young and can enjoy it instead of literally counting pennies until I'm almost retired. LOL at you if you think otherwise.

If it doubles everyday for 30 days wouldn't it be

Day 1 - 0.02 cents?

rather than

Day 1 - 0.01 cents ?
