I considered deleting the post, but this seems more cowardly than just admitting I was wrong. But TIL something!

    You couldn’t buy that car with either denomination since money would have zero value now… and also the universe would collapse in on itself… but mainly the zero value thing.

      Money only has zero value if people wideluly know you have infinity money.

      And even then, unless you’ve spent huge amounts you won’t meaningfully inflate the money supply.

          You could just have a magic wallet that always had a 100$ in it. Take 100$ out, another spawns. Basically a money printer

            Matter appearing in your wallet would instantly collide and possibly fuse with the air and other things in your wallet likely causing an intense plasma burst as matter was created from nothing. The bill would vaporize and I suppose could kill you.
