If u make 2 dollars a second everyday day until the end of the year how much will u have vs if u make 2 million everyday

1 answer

To calculate how much you would make in each scenario by the end of the year (assuming 365 days):

Scenario 1: Earning $2 per second

  1. Calculate the number of seconds in a day: \[ 24 \text{ hours} \times 60 \text{ minutes} \times 60 \text{ seconds} = 86,400 \text{ seconds} \]

  2. Calculate daily earnings: \[ 86,400 \text{ seconds} \times 2 \text{ dollars/second} = 172,800 \text{ dollars/day} \]

  3. Calculate annual earnings: \[ 172,800 \text{ dollars/day} \times 365 \text{ days} = 63,072,000 \text{ dollars} \]

Scenario 2: Earning $2 million every day

  1. Calculate annual earnings: \[ 2,000,000 \text{ dollars/day} \times 365 \text{ days} = 730,000,000 \text{ dollars} \]

Comparison:

  • Total earnings at $2 per second for a year: $63,072,000
  • Total earnings at $2 million per day for a year: $730,000,000

In conclusion, earning $2 million every day results in significantly more total earnings compared to earning $2 per second.
