out of loyalty to the pedantic roots of the great figgie debate, i feel obligated to inform you that dropping one or two figgies on a chair would require you to spend somewhere between 90% and 99% of your gross income, which seems excessive for a piece of furniture, however nice it may be

a 90% reduction is a 10% retention i.e. decreasing log10(cash)+1 by exactly one, such as from a marginally middle-class income like 219k to 21.9k. 99% is a 1% retention

note that under this framework it is theoretically impossible to spend all your figgies, aka xeno's paradox of figgies

Fiedler posted:6.5 figgies is approximately 316,228. wrong, it’s 449999.5 because that’s halfway between 100000 and 999999 but probably 449999.50000001 because a computer toucher who didn’t know any better thought it’d be OK to convert it to floating point representation at some point.

Figgies do not increase linearly. If they did, then 6.5 figgies would equal $6.5.
