Money Tree Trick

[G-Dog]

So I found a trick went planting a money tree. After you dig up the bag of 1000 bells don’t bury it back in the glowing hole. Instead bury a bag of 99k bell! When the tree grows it will produce 3 bags of 99k bells instead of 1000.

Nah. You just got lucky. The most you can get guaranteed is 10,000k bags.

Incorrect, I made a thread on this topic earlier today! Please take a look:

Money Trees -- How They Work!

I've been seeing a lot of false information and confusion on these things, so I figured I would make a thread to explain how they really work! There are three "groups" of money trees, which yield different results. Those are the following; Group 1 - 100 Bells to 1000 Bells planted, This...

As to be on topic, congrats OP! You got rather lucky. You had a 30% chance to get 99,000 x3.

^yup! this will only happen sometimes - if you plant 10k everyday rather than 99k everyday, you'll make a few million more per year

I was referring to the "most you can get guaranteed is 10,000 bags."

The most you can get is 99,000 bags, at a 30% rate.

the most you can get guaranteed

99k isn't guaranteed

The other person meant that the most you can get for sure is 10k bags. If you plant 10k, you will get 10k 100% of the time. If you plant 99k (or any value more than 10k), you only get that value back 30% of the time, aka, not guaranteed.

What if you plant 30k? then you either break even or get an extra 60k

If we based on probability: in the long run, 10k investment is more profitable.

If you invest 99,999, you will only get to profit 4M more or less in a year.

If you invest 10,000, you are guaranteed 7.3 M in a year.

Click the link I posted above for better detail. But, if you plant 30,000 Bells you'll have a 30% chance to get 30,000 x3.

English is a flawed language and easily misunderstood. While his information was correct, his wording didn't help the cause. Still, it let me spread more accurate information for the OP. Didn't mean to upset anyone, though.

if i'm doing my math correctly, planting 30k a day will still be slightly less profitable than planting 10k. with 30k a day for a year you'd get ~6.6mil of profit

I'm too lazy to do the math - I wonder how it'd work out yearly
edit: nvm (see above)

If we based on probability: in the long run, 10k investment is more profitable.

If you invest 99,999, you will only get to profit 4M more or less in a year.

If you invest 10,000, you are guaranteed 7.3 M in a year.

yeah, that's why I always just do 10k

I know how it works, that's not why I posted

I just dig up the bag, cover the hole, and carry on with my day. Easiest decision I make all day.
