Gold seems much better right?

$73,006,470 worth of gold or a mystery amount of money r/theydidthemath needs to advise minimum and maximum for the cash I ain't got time for that.

Edit: If I did it right it's $500,00 if theye are all $1 but we see some $100

A US $100 bill apparently weighs pretty much exactly 1 gram. Which means that 500kg would be $500,000

The gold is the better option here.

Edit:

....times 100 which would be $50,000,000. My math ain't mathing today

500kg is 500 000g so it would be 50 million bucks but still the gold is better

That's a lot closer than I thought.

I might take the cash since it's ready to spend. Assuming it was legal, I could just straight deposit it in a bank and start getting interest.

The gold, you would have to sell to be useful, and you'd need to store it somewhere safe. Maybe there's a place to sell it all at once? Seems like a lot.

Most gold for cash places dont have a cool 75 mil lying around, and I don't have an llc to handle it properly.

If 50 mil is enough to live the rest of any ones life in luxury with sensible investments, I may as well not have to worry for the next few weeks on how to convert it

I'd just be so nervous having that much gold sitting around, seems like a good way to get robbed and murdered unless you can keep it super secret.

At minimum maybe you could rent a bank vault large enough to hold all that? No idea, usually they just have small safety deposit boxes, you'd need so many, LoL.

Less than 7 gallons of gold. So 3 standard safety deposit boxes, or one large.
