  After taxes, you’d only have like $4.9 billion. That’s how they get you. You’d be better off taking the dollar in 5 million years and letting it grow.

    You do know that interest earned is also taxed right? Letting it grow means you pay every year of how much it grew.

      That’s why I’m waiting 5 million years to let it grow. I’m skipping 5 million years worth of taxes.

    I don’t want to be happy. I want a house, clothes, and food. And a significant coffee and Scotch budget.
