“Take the billion today over the doubling dollar”
Agree
- Guaranteed wealth right now
- Math is sketchy on the doubling
- Don't trust complicated schemes
- Can invest a billion immediately
- Bird in hand beats the bush
Disagree
- Exponential growth gets insane fast
- Doubling reaches billions in hours
- Do the actual math
- More fun to watch it grow
- In 24 hours you'd have trillions
