You do realize that if you take either the gold or the cash you're still roughly a billion dollars away from being a billionaire? At $72m you still have about 93% of the way to go before you hit even one billion. Elon is currently somewhere north of $700bn.

I'm just pointing this out because many people don't realize how excessively rich billionaires actually are. Many still seem to think we're talking about cutting into people's rainy day savings when we're calling for billionaire's fortunes getting taxed. And nobody earns that kind of money.

With all of the above said, if it is legit and comes with no strings attached, I will gladly take the ~$70m in gold (with approximately the dimensions of a microwave). Even if I have to pay taxes on it.

While gold does incur a conversion cost when putting it in a bank account, the same is true for a large amount of cash (especially when it is in a foreign currency). And gold has an intrinsic value which only increases over time. Thanks!

I'll take the gold, MAGA is royally fucking up the USD.

A lot of this question really hinges around one question. What do I have to tell the government?

Do I get this as a prize? A gift? An inheritance? Income? Magical Genie appearance? Do I have to launder it? Am I going to get audited?

Classic. Well done ?

Is it 100 dollar bills? How much? Each weighs a gram. Gold is worth...145$ peer gram. So that means...gold will always be worth more, unless severely diluted.

both are more than I can carry , I'll take 30kg of gold

Homie flunked the pound of feathers riddle one too many times

how about trillion tons of zimbabwean dollars

Gold: ~$145,000/kg

Dollar bills = about $1,000/kg

For reference.

Edit: didn’t tap the image to see $100 bills. Add a couple zeros to the $/kg amount.

Everybody ITT

But I would have to pay taxes 😱

What are y'all doing complainig about billionaires not paying taxes, when you want to avoid them already talking about imaginary money?

I'm not getting either. 500kg is powerlifter territory, nobody else can lift it.

500kg of gold is $72.6 million as of current market value.

The image shows 100 dollar bills, so let's assume the 500kg consists of just that. That would add up to ~$50 million (~1 gram each, adding up to 500.000 bills).

Gold increases in value. The dollar is decreasing in value and Trump is making sure it's going to tank as soon as possible.

Gold is worth more and is a wiser investment over time so I pick gold, with delivery please and thank you.
