Just something to think about.

Here's a question for you: if you were given one dollar, pound or any single piece of currency each day and doubled it, how long would it take until you became a millionaire?

Just something to think about, I will give you the answer on Monday have a great weekend. cheers wave

explore6,it's friday and you want us to do math,sshhhlaugh
Hi Explorer blushing Sorry, Im bad at math and money.lol. I dont even know how many quarters it takes to make a dollar, I tried but they're just not the same material.grin
In this economy, inflation would take it away before you could save it, it really would not take very long if you could double it every day. But the bank would steal it with feesfrustrated devil very mad frustrated
In my country? it would take about a million of my dollars: laugh:it hasn't have much value moping moping grin
I'd be a millionaire the day before I was a "two" millionaire ... so let's see... working backwards... typing ... 2 days prior would be half a mil... 1/4... 1/8... 1/16 ... divide by 3.141527 ... square root of 14 ... doh

Here... from what I can tell... looks like I owe you $1. help

Now... if you double it every day... dancing ... how long until ... yay ?
this is easy:

everyday one Euro makes a million days till millionaire.
remember a year has 365 days. ten years?
28 days with a penny... have a funtastic weekend! smile

Adding it real quickly and not checking my figures too precisely I came up with 20 days.
Exponential Growth: f{x}=x^2
Have a funtastic weekend everyone!
f{x}=x^2
What's everyone's plans for this weekend?
aww somebody figured it out before i got to it, pity, i could have enhanced my 100% record of being wrong, laugh
explorerwave

I'll save it up until it's enough to buy a lotto and who knows I'll win the one million lottery few days or weeks after that? laugh daydream

Just kidding, I wished I got along with Math better hug bouquet
Hope you all had a weekend as great as mine. the answer is 21 days there was some close guesses
