    fun with numbers

    If you were somehow immortal, and had saved $10,000 every day since the birth of christ.

    today you would be the equal 200th richest person on the planet

    the richest person would be worth 27 times more than you (seriously, Jeff Bezos just cleared the $200B mark)

    let's finish with a joke

    If you are feeling down about your lot in life, look on the bright side, you are far closer to being a millionaire than Jeff Bezos is

    Yeah but if Jeff Bezos was a ferner I doubt he'd get that many upvotes.

    Not as much as you. I have 7.6k likes. That makes me a pretty big deal around here.

    Yeah it is. Took me awhile to figure it out too. It definitely helps impress the ladies in the real world

    I'm under no illusions. If there was a downvote button I'd have drowned years ago.

    @mariner4life ok, I shared this at work, and someone decided to work it out, and put 3% interest on this each year as well...you would have been a millionaire after 156 years and a billionaire after 390 years, after 2020, there are 30 digits, whatever that becomes?

    Thats not accounting for tax or actually spending it.

    I think the bottom line is billionaires are basically never ever good people. They’re essentially master manipulators who get rich off the back of their many underlings.

    He's got nothing on @Bones who I'm sure set's his alarm just so he can rip apart my posts at 2am his time.
