    Fun fact, if you could pull out one dollar per second and went nonstop, it would take over 11 days to pull out all one million dollars.

      At 8 hours per day, that’s 33 days.

      A month at this job and I get paid a million? I’m in.

      I was coming in here too describe this math as well lol. Worse still is your speed wouldn’t even be that far and you still need to sleep and eat and stuff.

      Youd be at this for a couple months at least.

      It would be great to cover all your small purchases though.

      The best way to handle it would be to stand on something on have them fall and pull the rest out with gravity. I think that’d work. Maybe into a bag of holding.

        But the bag of holding would also be cursed. Like maybe it dispenses the money one dollar at a time with a cash register sound at every dollar.

      If you wished to be a billionaire it’s 31 YEARS. At $1 per second. No sleeping, no eating, no bathroom breaks, no nights off. 24/7/365. Realistically you’d die before your wish came true. Billionaires shouldn’t exist.

        Amen. I was just thinking earlier today that billionaires would be more useful if we barbecued them and fed them to our pets.
