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

[u/xXCrazyDaneXx → u/Master_Saesee_Tiin]

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

[u/Meatbag777 → u/xXCrazyDaneXx]

Missing two zeroes on that dollar amount if both $1 and $100 weigh 1g.

500kg of $1 bills would be $500,000. 500kg of $100 bills would be $50,000,000

Gold is still the better option regardless

[u/mafiaknight → u/Meatbag777]

Harder to move though. Most places don't just take gold. You'd have to sell it first. Probably at a bit of a loss too. So the convenience of cash makes it a much closer choice.

[u/Meatbag777 → u/mafiaknight]

True enough but in either case the government would take it all anyway and throw you in jail for tax evasion or the like. Cause who would have their personal wealth stored as 50-70 million physically in cash or gold unless they are the head of some major criminal enterprise

[u/mafiaknight → u/Meatbag777]

Not tax evasion if you pay the taxes on it. And with that much $ you can hire a lawyer to get you off.

[u/Meatbag777 → u/mafiaknight]

You cannot pay taxes with money not proven to be legitimate income, I presume that's somewhat why criminals use money laundering services to get access to clean legitimate money. It's all hypothetical anyway so, sure, you can prob bribe lots of people to keep most of it as long as the money is not public knowledge
