That half million would have really screwed up my 1040 form. But I still can have a block party with $425.00

Hear it from the author ....
You know the old saying, "You do the math."
Well in my little experiment today, I wanted to see how many people really do do the math. So I sent the message below to 100 of my pals at random. I wanted to see how many folks would catch my intentional three-digit error...just three little zeros.
So far only 2 people have actually done the math and let me know about it.
Congratulations Rick Steinberg and Derrick Phillips! They got it right. When you divide 200,000,000 people into $85 Billion you get $425.00 NOT $425,000.00. It would take $85 Trillion to get the $425,000 number.

Math, Yup!
When I posted this I knew the math was wrong, but i like the novel way the guy put it and set it up.
I guess the worms are out of the can! LOL!
