Same reason why, if someone blackmails you with a pic or vid, just let them release it. They likely won't. But who cares. If my friends and family see a webcam vid of me furiously masturbating, that's probably more damaging to them, than me. I'd just own it.

    If we had lots of time, then it's easy. Just buy total market index funds and sit and wait. This is why vampires are usually rich. If you've lived that long, and you're not rich, you're doing something wrong.

    $2 at 7% a year for 50 years = $58.91

    $2 at 7% a year, for 500 years = $1,505,863.24

    The power of compound interest!
