First off, a million dollars in pennies is 100,000,000. Let's see: 1 + 2 + 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + 64 + 128 + 256 + 512 + 1024 + 2048 + 4096 + 8192 + 16384 (HALFWAY POINT) + 32768 + 65536 + 131072 + 262144 + 524288 + 1,048,576 + 2,097,152 + 4,194,304 + 8,388,608 + 16,777,216 + 33,554,432 + 67,108,864 + 134,217,728. This is where I'll stop, because now the penny scenario is more money, but there were still some days left.
