i would press the red one.
blue I really do not need a lot of money
>>17056127what about if red is 50% 100 mil and 100% 10k? you still get something guaranteed. the 10k is supposed to make you more likely to want to press the red one since you don't need a lot of money anyway
50/50either I press one or I don't
Blue. Not even a difficult scenario.
>>17056130press a button or else
>>17056124Blue. 1 million invested properly is more than enough to basically guarantee comfortable, non extravagant, living for the rest of your life.
>>17056124Too easy OP, try this one
>>17056124Red is the correct choice if you actually know probability theory. The expected value is $1Bil while the expected value of blue is less than $1Mil
>>17056124>1,000,0001,000,00 WHAT?
>>17056124red. anyone picking blue never took statistics
Red and kill myself immediately if I don't win, so either way I won.
>>17056165spankingsjoke's on all the blue pushers itt
>>17056163>>17056166>muh expected valueRetard level take. That just tells you the mean value among everyone who pressed the button, not whether you should press it as an individual. Your argument only makes sense if you had a group of friends all pressing the button and agreeing to share the winnings.Not to mention the fact that money is extrinsically valuable and your quality of life scales non-linearly with how much you have.
>>17056180Enjoy your million I guess, maybe you can buy a nice house with it while I luxuriate in my on-average one billion
>>17056124>$2.000.000.000 vs 1,000,000Pick a consistent separator and carry your units through, you stupid monkey.
>>17056181Stick that million into a standard investment fund pulling ~7% annually and that's $70k a year. You'd effectively have a six figure sallary while working at McDonald's. Meanwhile, if your coin happens to land tails, you get nothing.
>>17056165Button-pressing credits
Lucky for you this will never happen so you don't need to really make a choice.
>>17056163>>17056166>pick red because you "know statistics">get nothing>live the rest of your life with the knowledge that you could have had a nearly guaranteed million dollars
>>17056200Yes, in that scenario I would live happily knowing that I applied clearheaded statistical reasoning even if things didn't pan out.
>>17056201You committed a statistical fallacy by presssing red.
>>17056201so you're a happy poorfag knowing you applied clearheaded statistical reasoning and failed? what level of cope is this lol
>>17056201>i'd be happy having nothingyeah i doubt iteasy to say when it's hypotheticalin the real world you'd be sitting at work in your 50s with the knowledge that you could be retired but instead you made a decision based on greed and autism
>>17056124Do people really post here who don’t already have > $1MM liquid? This is like a jeet filter more than anything else
>>17056216Yeah, my house is worth more than that kek. Poorfags hate the cost of living but it's still fine.
>>17056193>Button-pressing creditsCan trade for AI tokens. Or food. Your call.
>>17056219>i have a liquid houseFound the fish.
>>17056124I'll press the red button cause if you press either button, you're only going home with like half the money and I'd rather have 1B than 500K.
>>17056124Talk to the next few people in line and subdivide who wins with the red button
>>17056226It’s a mob, not a group. There is $2 billion cash inside that machine. No one is going home without at least $20 and a bunch of cuts and bruises.
>>17056225You wouldn’t even go home with $1B. I’d literally just invent some fake shit to sue you for $10MM and then you’d happily settle for a few hundred K and then I’d sell a guru guide for $8K on how to do that to you and then you’d die by a million frivolous lawsuits and then I’d end up with over half of your post tax billion
>>17056216so if you already have a million dollars in cash then getting another million would be worthless to you?interesting, good to know
>>17056124The blue button. I'm poor and a million dollars, with some conservative investments, would afford me a comfortable life. If I wanted something more, like to start going on expensive trips around the world, I could earn some money for that. Two billion dollars is meaningless to me. It's beyond my comprehension how I could make use of that much money and anyone who has that money ends up endlessly targeted by people who want to take it away. There's no peace if you're a billionaire.
>>17056238So if you say something stupid, you think it means I said the same stupid thing you said? That’s probably why you’re a broke ass idiot lol
