So I'm just sittin', spaced out on my computer chair this one time and this idea hits me. Money is the root of all evil, but if one could amass enough of it, they could then throw off the whole fiat system by destroying all of it at once, thus causing a massive deflation(economically speaking). What percentage of total wordly worth that is, I have no idea. In someone-who-doesn't-know-what-they're-talking-about terms, I'd say we'd need around 40% of all the moneys everwhere. It could be less. 30%? I mean come on 30%, not only is that less than half, it's less than a third. Some would call it roughly a third. I call it peanuts.
This wasn't the idea that struck me. What struck me was that there would probably be some (albeit not numerous in number) sympathisers to the black hole bank account idea, and that if I was savvy enough, I could set up a website to which people could donate to the cause. In the future when I am Bruce Waynely wealthy, I'll make substantial donations of my own.
I know, it's crazy. But it'd also be awesome. It could even catch on with celebrities. The website would be something like freemoney.com or burnyourwallets.com. I don't even think the latter one is taken. You'd go to the site and you could see the account balance and maybe there'd be some nice animations of the world exploding or something.
I'm kind of excited about it, but I'm wary because it's a crazy person's idea. I have to admit that the "what if" of a scam scenario had crossed my mind, but; a) it's a little too evil even for my (ooh italics) bad boy side and b) it wouldn't work. The only way people would donate was if I uploaded scanned copies of the "special" terms the bank and I would have no problems working out, and proved to everyone that everything was legit.
If anyone reads this and thinks this would be cool you should let me know. Somehow...
