    So what is it, then? A non-admission admission?

      Are you going to provide us an answer, or just fill us with nonsense that can be safely ignored?

      And why are you always so eager to change the question? Just answer the original question, please, with no further insults. You'll feel better about it.

        I was asking if that is the ENTIRE point of this meaningless thread you've created. Comprende, genius?

          The point of the thread (if you are unable to read or remember what you previously read) is for you to answer this question:

          How much should I bet on each assuming I want to maximize growth?
          Do you have an answer, or should we just ignore your nonsense?

          And did you read post #101? How about that? Are we over your head on this one?

            I answered the question long ago, genius. Remember? It's you who won't address pertanent questions because you have no answer for them. If you admit that you'd remove the 0-98 in that situation, it means that you'd also have to remove the 1-99 from the 100 wager scenario. Look, moron. You're not smart. You found a rare event and catered a ton of worthless criteria that would never happen just to fit it's removal. Get off your high horse, pal.

              I'm not the one posed to answer any question, remember I posed the question to you?

              How you've failed here is simply amazing. Not ready to acknowledge that a 3.75E-32 event will NOT HAPPEN in this scenario is really moronic, I'm sorry to say. Is there anything else you want to twist, change, exaggerate, or make untrue about the original question?

              And did you read post #101? Are you going to at least acknowledge you understand this, or something on the order of "no, sorry, I don't understand this concept of over 100% portfolio investing."

              To say you are "not smart" would be like stating 1 - 1 = 0. I cannot conceive of anything more obvious.

                Yes, I agree that 0-100 will not happen and should be excluded from the array of potential outcomes.

                So now that we've agreed on that can we also agree that 1-99 will not happen and should be excluded from the array of potential outcomes?

                  Here are the probabilities for the outcomes of 0-100 through 20-80:

                  3.75E-32
                  3.98E-30
                  2.09E-28
                  7.26E-27
                  1.87E-25
                  3.81E-24
                  6.41E-23
                  9.14E-22
                  1.13E-20
                  1.22E-19
                  1.18E-18
                  1.03E-17
                  8.10E-17
                  5.82E-16
                  3.84E-15
                  2.34E-14
                  1.32E-13
                  6.92E-13
                  3.39E-12
                  1.55E-11
                  6.68E-11

                  As I indicated previously, the correct answer follows a utility function. But it certainly DOES NOT INCLUDE OUTCOME 0-100.

                  This should help you produce the answer.

                      Haha. I already stated that you have to utilize a seperate utility function for each individual's level of comfort with risk of ruin. THERE IS NO RIGHT ANSWER, GENIUS! This would be different for ANYONE who is willing to write off outcomes and risk total ruin.

                                And by the way, my utility is to NOT WRITE OFF OUTCOMES. So my answer is and always has been correct. < 1%. Thanks for playing.

                                    For somebody who thinks they have the correct answers (but does not), I am surprised you missed this one. But, you don't, so I'm not.

                                    This would be the key where the "*" is on your keyboard, got it? Then type it in again. That is the post number.

                                    And again, why are you so dense so as to not consider over 100% portfolio investing, as I have described here?

                                      No, you are wrong again. Quite moronic, actually.

                                      0-100 will not happen. Please stop with posting anything wrong about this fact.

                                        I don't need to. But you answered wrong (< 1%), because you don't recognize the fact that 0-100 won't happen, probably because your IQ level registers somewhere around volcanic rock.

                                        And the fact that your slow mind cannot recognize this as a real world scenario makes me pity you even more. Please stop and save the digital waste, really. We don't need this.

                                          You are on the right track. Proper bet ratio will be 1.67%, yielding expected growth of 3.632%. But don't tell Monkey[deleted], he will be stuck with 2.51% growth and loving it.

                                            I want 0 risk of ruin. ZERO!! Get it yet? When you can make 0=3.75E-32 talk to me. And you're attempting to insult me... now that's rich. You hadn't stated anything about a seperate utility function, only I have. Please enlighten us as to the one and only correct answer then, hotshot. I'm sure you won't as THERE ISN'T ONE!!!!

                                              Do you really enjoy being wrong this much? Does it put you in some state of euphoria that makes you forget about your lack of mental faculties? You did not get the post #, did you? And I explained it so simply for you to key in on your keyboard. That will show you wrong again.

                                              Again, 0-100 WILL NOT HAPPEN. It is as simple as that. Why can't you just accept this fact and move on? You don't need to worry about it happening, do you understand?

                                              If I had 5 cents for every wrong post you have made here I would be approaching a sick tax bracket.

                                                So 0=3.75E-32? Please provide the math.

                                                    I know you will never admit to your errors. That's fine. I'm not here to get you to cave in on your obvious logical errors or anything like that.

                                                    But for others who recognize that they do not need to consider outcomes that will not happen, they at least have an opportunity to learn from this and consider other ways at looking at expected growth. But you, that would be a solid NO.

                                                      Wait. Now I want boatloads of risk. I'm confident I can go at least 40-60 and I have BigCap's mother's mortgage to pay off tomorrow or the house goes in default. I suppose I should still bet 1.67%. Right?

                                                          Sorry, wrong again. Nice try. Maybe if you go out and count cars crossing the intersection and use that as a guess you might get a bit closer to some kind of useful number.

                                                          Really, please stop this useless, nonsense, posting.

                                                          BTW, did you repeat the lesson above?

                                                              I was thinking, that tonight you could run some monte carlos and get the Earth to switch places with the Sun, and have all of this occur for the 11pm news, that would be great. Would you consider that a possible outcome for your future investing?
