    Woohoo, time for more numbers with rosypolly. (I bet your all sick of these by now) Let’s pretend you can trade your ECC dollars for USD dollars.(which is against server rules to my understanding so don’t do that.)So what is the amount of ECC dollars you would need to buy some popular real life items, and how many of each farm item would you need to collect to get enough money.

    A 32GB 4th generation IPod touch

    USD= $271.99

    ECC= $813,030

    Wheat= 464,588

    Pumpkins= 813,030

    Reeds= 2,032,575

    Melon Blocks= 406,515

    A 16GB IPad 2

    USD= $529.99

    ECC= $1,587,030

    Wheat= 906,874

    Pumpkins= 1,587,030

    Reeds= 3,967,575

    Melon Blocks= 793,515

    2012 Ford F-450 (a truck)

    USD= $49,395

    ECC= $148,185,000

    Wheat= 84,677,143

    Pumpkins= 148,185,000

    Reeds= 370,462,500

    Melon Blocks= 74,092,500

    The Average Price of a Home in the USA

    USD= $273,900

    ECC= $821,700,000

    Wheat= 469,542,857

    Pumpkins= 821,700,000

    Reeds= 2,054,250,000

    Melon Blocks= 410,850,000

    The International Space Station (everyone needs one of these :p )

    USD= 150 billion dollars

    ECC= 450 trillion dollars

    Wheat= 257,142,857,142,857 (stupid wheat not working out into a nice number)

    Pumpkins= 450 trillion

    Reeds= 1 quadrillion and 125 trillion

    Melon Blocks= 225 trillion

    *all the prices are based off the 1 USD=3,000 ECC ratio

    *numbers are rounded after the decimal point

    *taxes are not included

    There you have it, go out and reed farm yourself an international space station. Should only take you 1,122,500,000,000 hours (assuming you make 10k an hour) or 12,842,466 years. (Pro tip: you won’t live that long) Any how this was an idea I was going to put in my old numbers thread, but that got spammed and is now probably considered dead so this gets its own thread. You can still check out the old one here ----> viewtopic.php?f=8&t=19132 (shamelessly self-promoting) Hope you liked. Post your own items down below, and ill figure the numbers out for it and add it to the post above.

    Keep on making these threads. Theyre really interesting.

    Suggestion:
    Calculate how many sticks you would have to sell to afford the refund of the spanish banks ( its a challenge :D )

    Wealth of the richest people in history, assuming the same things as rosy does (all of these are estimates):

    Musa I, Mansa of Mali:
    USD = $400 billion (or $400000000000)

    ECC = $1.2 trillion (or $1200000000000)

    Pumpkins = 1.2 trillion

    Wheat = 687 billion

    Reeds = 3 trillion

    Melons = 600 billion

    Nicolas II, Tsar of the Russian Empire:
    USD = $290 billion (or $290000000000)

    ECC = $870 billion (or $870000000000)

    Pumpkins = 870 billion

    Wheat = 497 billion

    Reeds = 2.18 trillion

    Melons = 435 billion

    Andrew Carnegie:
    USD = $297.8 billion (or $297800000000)

    ECC = $893.4 billion (or $893400000000)

    Pumpkins = 893.4 billion

    Wheat = 510 billion

    Reeds = 2.23 trillion

    Melons = 446.7 billion

    John D. Rockefeller (considered richest man ever, and like, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever):
    USD = $663.4 billion (or $663400000000)

    ECC = 2 trillion (or $2000000000000)

    Pumpkins = 2 trillion

    Wheat = 1.14 trillion

    Reeds = 4.98 trillion

    Melons = 995 billion

    Carlos Slim Helu (richest living man):
    USD = $63.3 billion (or $63300000000)

    ECC = $189.9 billion (or $189900000000)

    (not awe-inspiringly high enough, not gonna bother with farming prices)

    Carlisle Cullen (if you don't recognise the name, don't bother):
    USD = $36.3 billion (or $36300000000)

    ECC = $108.9 billion (or $108900000000)

    (not awe-inspiringly high enough, not gonna bother with farming prices)
    (yes, Forbes has actually estimated his wealth)

    House of Rothschild (a very very very famous and very very very rich banking family):
    USD = over 300 trillion (yes, you read that right) (highest estimate) (or $300000000000000)

    ECC = over 900 trillion (or $900000000000000)

    Pumpkins = 900 trillion

    Wheat = 514 trillion

    Reeds = 2.25 quadrillion

    Melons = 450 trillion

    NB: the Rothschild family really exists, and the collective wealth of the entire family (known as the House of Rothschild) has actually been estimated at over 300 trillion (which would actually mean that this family is 4 times richer than the rest of the entire world).

    GET FARMING NOW.

    And now just for lols, how long you need to farm a 200x200 block of pumpkins/wheat/reeds/melons to get to Rothschild wealth (not including water blocks and assuming shortest growing time as well as 200x200 full of farmable items, as well as 30 days to a month, as well as instant auto-farming):

    Wheat:
    64 billion minutes
    1071428571 hours
    44642857 days
    1488095 months (30 days)
    124008 years (360 days)

    Melons:
    11 billion minutes
    1.875 billion hours
    7.8125 million days
    240417 months (30 days)
    21701 years (360 days)

    Pumpkins:
    growth time unknown

    Sugar Cane:
    growth time unknown

    So if I make 500 or so melon farms that are as good as they can get and have 500 bots farming them non stop all day all night for 50 years, I'll own that much in ECC dollars by the time I'm 64?

    That doesn't sound right... hmm.

    Well, due to java limitations (as well as a limit set in configs) you can only actually have 10 trillion ecc dollars at a time, and even if you did get 900 trillion dollars, it wouldn't be exchangable. But you can take pride in knowing that on a desolate, obsolete server on an archaic video game (video game? we're up to like virtual virtual virtual virtual virtual games now!) you have more 4x more money than the world did when you started making this fake money.
