    As close as I can figure and find out, one pallet of new $100 bills from the U. S. Treasury/Federal Reserve would be worth $6,400,000.

    BTW, one can indeed buy sheets of uncut bills from the government for rather more than their face value.

    Hm, $779 million originally, here’s another 23 million, now it’s 783. Maybe Milo is taking into account what he’s already gotten rid of?

    I think he was trying to say “hit me with an olive”. Hit him with a can full, Milo, and see if that helps. Boy.

    Don’t insult grapes. They have peelings too.

    Talk about dating your storylines. That seemingly-ludicrous amount of money will now buy you exactly two (2) of the Navy’s shiny new F-35C fighter jets. And like vintage British sports cars, you absolutely need two, one to tool around in and the other for parts to keep the first one going. BUT WAIT! What about inflation? That 783 sheets in 1986 is now worth a cool 2.065 billion so that would get us … hmmm … carry the 3 … ummm … six. Six jets, and enough bread left over for almost 1000 hours of flight time, so that’s a pretty sweet deal. Sign me up.

    if it was now, just wait a few months and then file a whistleblower complaint. You get between 10% and 30% of the recaptured funds.

    Money corrupts even more than the power it brings.

    How does the Old Saying go? “Know your place,” Milo, which is at the feet of lordly and wealthy Dr. Opus Spock, Chief Science Officer and multimillionaire. Deal with it!
