Serafino:

I have a puzzle for you; if you place $ 1 on the first chess square and double it each time, how many dollars will you have on the last square? I believe there are 64 squares on a chess board.

I'd call it a day at square 37. That's something like $68 billion. No reason to be a pig holding out for the high tick. ;-)

2 raised to power 64, which equals 34 followed by 37 zeroes, -- a little more than Bill Gate's net worth counted in Hong Kong dollars.

Hi Serafino. Is it time yet to get back in RACE?

Regards to all RACEans.
