Immortal in prison (life sentence)

Stargate38 · 2012-10-05, 23:48

Suppose you were completely immortal. You get caught at the age of 127 for doing something extremely evil (such as murder), and you are given a "life sentence" with bond (shown below). How old would you be when your bail is completely payed off? Take the following into account:

1. The prison is an average U.S. jail (in terms of sentences).
2. You have a bond of $10¹⁰⁰-911.
3. Every day, every human in existence gave $1.
4. Human population growth is unlimited (Colonization of other planets, galaxies, and universes), and the growth rate is a ratio of 30001/30000 every day with 7 billion people at the time you were born.
6. Consider interest, inflation, and taxes, using the U.S. value for interest.

Post the formula you used to calculate the answer.

10¹⁰⁰-911 days.

<edit>Understood the wording to mean 'was given', not that they gave.

Did you assume unlimited population growth? I meant that for every person in existence, $1 is paid off. So for 6 billion people, $6,000,000,000 are paid off every day. Each person gives $1.

really I got one day but now I understand he mean't 30001/30000 per year. because if not the population is a 415068 digit number by the time I'm arrested, so if every person gave 1 dollar each day it would take 1 day to pay off unless abnormal interest etc. was applied.

edit: and without interest etc. I have an answer under the per year version:5849304 years !

Population at imprisonment=32,855,178,694
Without interest or further population growth: 8.34x10^86 years.
As far as taxes, donations are non-taxable in the US. "US Interest" does not exist: there are separate interest rates depending on what type of loan/investment, time period for payoff, etc. No one could loan this amount, this amount greatly exceeds M1,2,&3 supplies. The world will be engulfed by the sun FAR before your payment would be finished, assuming these people could be forced to donate to your cause every day. Also, you would develop so many diseases and your body would literally decay that this thought exercise is far from feasible.
