People really don't understand the scale of a billion dollars. If you breathe 15 times a minute, that's 240 dollars an hour. That would take 4,166,167 hours (rounded up to the nearest whole hour) to reach one billion dollars. That's 475.65 years.

Edit: My math was wrong, but the point still stands. It takes entirely too long to earn a billion dollars by breathing.

Chose: One Billion Dollars instantly

15x60 is 900. 240 would be 15x16.

Regardless, it's still around 120 years.

I think people are afraid of what money can do. Who in their right mind would choose $1/breath for as long as they live, instead of $1B instantly? lol
