     @kaia @mstarace Less than that, ~100$ is the price of the bourgeoisie meals in Parisian restaurants IIRC.

     @kaia @mstarace if bezos had put $1 into a bank account at 1% interest at the end of the stone age (6000 years ago) he'd have $84,770,100,073,683,746,698,559,488 (that's nearly 90 septillion) now

     @lain @kaia @mstarace yeah that’s nice and all but based on the Grug Institute’s CPI metrics (which takes into account stuff like rock and cave paint prices), inflation p.a. since the end of the stone age has been 2% thus bezos would have lost a considerable amount of money instead of holding it in something like shiny rock ore

     And he would have been divorced 240 times.😐

     That amount might be in negative dollars.
