Lmao, I still have my deed to the land. I'm about to be rich, friends :)
Invest the $100, and you'll be a billionaire in a matter of a few hundred years!
I know you're joking, but people really underestimate just how rich Elon Musk and other billionaires are. Say you went back to the time of Christ, 0 AD, and got a really good job. Say you were making $10,000 a day, in today's dollars. $10,000 a day, every day, no days off. What's even more amazing, say you were super good at saving. So good that you squirreled that $10,000 away every day without spending a penny. And you did that every day, for the last 2,000 some years (good for you for being immortal as well).
If you did all that, and then did it another 34 times, you would almost have as much money as Elon Musk.
With 0% interest? Over a 2024 year period?
My amortization schedule doesn't go out that far. Let's just say that the dude is rich.
No, no, no! Don't go back to just saying that! Then we're back at square one, really underestimating just how rich Elon Musk and other billionaires are!
I bet Jeff Bezos would like to own your land.
I don't recall if I still have that deed, but I do have my flag for Hawaii 2, and my royal title from the one castle. And pictures/letters from those Chinese factory workers thanking me for that day off
Hey fellow co-owner.
Can't remember if I did or not but want to say I did. Is there a way to check?
You can go to their website and sign up to be a part of the class action suit. They'll verify your purchase, then. I can't remember exactly what they asked for, but I had to go into my email to find it.
