Usually getting banking errors is extraordinarily exasperating and ends up in hours of handling bots, followed by hours of dealing like folk acting like androids , but for one man Chris Reynolds, he was temporarily the riches person in the world. A PayPal error left him with slightly over $92 Quadrillion dollars. Just to be specific he had $92,233,720,368,547,800. Do you actually know what I might do with $92 quadrillion bucks?
With $92 quadrillion greenbacks I would scoff and throw money in rich races faces. With $92 quadrillion dollars I'd convert become known as the George Washington Carver of $100 dollar bills. Turn it into fuel, burn it for heat, wear it as a coat to shield from the cold, you say it. With $92 quadrillion dollars I'd build everything I own out of money. My home, my vehicle, my cloths, my food. With $92 quadrillion dollars I might literally Scrooge McDuck and swim in my cash.
Reynold's, however was not a fast thinking, dashingly good looking man as myself. Before he became the riches man in the world he was selling car components on eBay part time. He only had $140 in his account. PayPal sends monthly account statements and the $92 quadrillion greenback gaff he though was a debt. Instead of straight away crapping his pants and crying insolvency in the streets. He probably did what any other average human would do in his position. Post it on Facebook. Here is where a "long lost pal" spotted that it was not a debt, but a credit to his account.
When he tried to log into his account to confirm his mates claims, he realized that he was left among the lowest ranking poor people in the world again with a $0 balance. Thanks PayPal. PayPal straight after made contact with him and noted the big mistake and stated that they would give a unspecified amount to a reason for Reynold's choice Instead of restoring his $140 that is. Yes you can give that to the charity of Give Me My Friggin' Cash Back.
Reynold's said that the most he has ever had in his account before that was $1,000 from selling vintage BMW tires. Naturally the press asked him what would he have done with the $92 quadrillion bucks. He stated that he would clear the US natural debt, perhaps buy the Philadelphia Phillies, and invest in some things. The paradox of this man's plans are beyond my understanding. Let's do a fast theoretical research of his plans.
Reynold's would withdrawal this money and pay off the US state debt, which would be like spitting into the ocean for him. Just in that act alone he has committed a few felonies like grand larceny, computer misuse, attempted hacking, PC crime, not to mention the fact it is online immediately makes all of his crimes federal. Just the charge of grand theft larceny would land him a projected 31,625,000,000 years. (Based off 1 or 2 cases online where approximately for swiping $1 million dollars they received around 3 and a half years in prison) That is just with one charge! They'll be locking up his bloodline for all time. If the governing body let's him survive to see the remainder of his wishes with his money, it would all be in vein establishing the fallacy in his simplistic views. Purchasing a sports team, cool idea. No issues in that you are pretty much infinitely rich. You do it as you love the team. Investing cash in things Is this dude high There's no investing when you have 126,547 times the quantity of money that Bill Gates has. There's only buying. Next, if you believed folks coming out the wood work for lotto prize was bad, this dude would be off the charts. Folks get murdered for lottery loot each day the difference is this man has the money to tell those theft peasants to kick rocks. Let alone he could hire a nations army to personally protect him.
So in summation, Reynold's pays off the US Countrywide Debt, buys his favorite sports team, wastes irrelevant billions in frivolous investments, learns a lesson about long lost pals trying to make contact again after striking it enormous means they are gold digging, and ultimately gets tossed in the slammer by a grateful US, which should finally purloin all his money.
All that money is literally paid to have a jail built and named after you since you'll be living in one for the remainder of your life/reincarnations. In which each reiteration of you would be getting cosy with each generation of Bubba in your unceasing jail cell.
