And the king asked the inventor, what can I give you for creating the most spectacular game I've ever played?
And the inventor says, well, I would like a grain of rice, and I would like you to double it for every square on the chessboard for 64.
squares on the board.
And the king thinks about it very quickly and says, sure.
Well, one of the things I did was to equate the value of a grain of rice to the cost of the grain of the rice, okay?
And it takes like a whole bunch of squares for it to even be worth a penny.
But as it keeps doubling over time, the
you get to a place where suddenly the amount of rice is now worth more than the net worth of Elon Musk and Warren Buffett combined.
And by the end of the 64 squares is worth more than the value of the entire U.S.
GDP.
You would never expect that.
You cannot see that type of exponential growth.
And, you know, when Matt talks about a stock multiplying 100 times over 30 years, compounding at 16.5% every year, year over year, most of that growth happens at the end of the curve, right?
It bumps along for a long time, and then the
