    Okay - I did the math. I’m pretty regular and I poop twice a day. Morning poop and afterwork poop. average human poop is about 8 ounces. A pound a day of poop. An ounce of silver is $32 - so call it $500 worth of silver poop a day. Roughly a salary of 180,000 a year. - for pooping.

    So the 16m gold is worth about 90 years of silver poop - so I’d need to live to 130 years old and have the same poops as I do today as I do at 130 to reach shoebox gold.

    The shoebox doubled is the king option

    Also - my shit would officially not stink. So that’s a thing to consider. It’s not like 180k is a bad salary

      TBH with the correct setup and a lot of leniency on “planting grapes” I could have 16M USD from 1067 acres of grape in a single season, but it would take time to earn the required 4,716,140~ish USD for the purchase of the acres (not accounting for inflation).
