1+1+Time=3

1+1=2

Yup.
No..... DUH...

So one year later, 1 dollar now becomes 1.5 dollar.

I still don't get it. Geometric progressions, spot rates, forward rates, bonds, put-call parity, black scholes, credit default swaps, martingales, blarhblarhblarh.

But if i'm eating one plate of hokkien mee and i'm given another plate, i have 2 plates.
So these 2 plates magically become 4 plates 10 minutes later?

So... basically nothing becomes something which becomes something more.

I really don't think it's a shallow post. Because it's so fundamentally flawed to begin with.
