$24 invested in 1624, compounded monthly at 8%, would amount to
just over $516 Trillion today.

Would you let the indians buy back manhattan for $24? Dont answer that! (g) One economist once took that $24 payment and somehow proved that if the indians had invested the $24 conservatively they would have more value today than manhattan is worth and now after the crash that probably is even more true. I didnt quiet believe that.

I am not talking about land they bought...I am talking about land they "conquered"...
