I'm not sure if this is comepletely relevant, but if money decreases in value over time, why do antiques increase in value over time? Does it have something to do with commodities?

what is a lump-sum of money?

also, the challenge i think can be solved by nothing that 2^10 is about 1000, so 2^50 is about 10^15. but you have to move the decimal to the left two places, so around the order of 10^13. then, you can guesstimate.

The Definition & Time Value of Money

  • Money plays three roles: medium of exchange, store of value and unit of account
  • Types of money include commodity money, commodity-backed money and fiat money
  • Countries today use a fiat currency, which has no intrinsic value
  • M1 money includes cash, money in checking accounts and traveler’s checks
  • M2 money includes M1 money plus savings accounts, certificates of deposits and money market funds
  • The time value equation is as follows: Future Value (FV) = Present Value (PV) x (1_r)n
