Warren Buffett Offers $1 Billion to Anyone with the Perfect March Madness
Bracket
In this tough economy, it’s fair to say that we could all use an extra
billion dollars.
Fortunately, someone could be a billion dollars richer in a few months,
thanks to a perfect March Madness bracket and a rather generous offer from
business and investor magnate Warren Buffett, currently listed as the world’
s fourth richest individual.
The 83-year-old Omaha-native’s company Berkshire Hathaway is teaming up with
Quicken Loans’ Dan Gilbert, owner of the Cleveland Cavaliers, to offer a
cool billion to anyone who can successfully fill out the perfect bracket for
this year’s NCAA Men’s basketball tournament. The payments will be given in
40 annual installments of $25 million.
So what, you may ask, are the odds of filling out the perfect bracket?
Roughly 1 in 9.2 quintillion.
But if you tend not to have much luck in March, it should be noted that
Quicken will award $100,000 each to the contest’s 20 most accurate “
imperfect” brackets to be used toward buying, refinancing or remodeling a
home.
今年要卯起來填 Bracket 了嗎?
$1 billion in 40 annual payments of $25 Mil.
