In the description of the gold nugget, it says: "A gold nugget, the size of a golf ball."

 

A golf ball is approximately 4.268 cm in radius diameter, and thus has a volume of 40.70 cm³, which is 786.32 grams of gold.

$131.02 per gram gold, a torn gold nugget would cost $103,023.65 us dollars.

In torn a gold nugget costs $175,000,000, so the exchange rate is 0.0005887

Every torn dollar is worth 0.00059 US dollars.
This means that a private island costs around $294,350, which seems plausible.

 

I say all this to say: We are getting ripped off with the price of xanax. I demand a decrease in the price of xanax to $400,000 torn dollars, which would be more realistic.


Edit: I used diameter instead of radius, oops

The volume of cylinder with radius 4.268 and height 8.536 is 488.487 cm3 or 9 ,437.57 gram gold

Lol isn't torn Xanax supposed to be some kind of special concoction according to it's description? I wish I could get 250 energy from some kind of pill irl....

You can exchange the price of Donator Packs directly but you chose to do it in the most convoluted way possible... 

 

Nice work.

a golf ball is 4.268cm in diameter, and thus has a volume of 40.71, which is 787.7g of gold. 
$131.02 per gram gold, a torn gold nugget would cost $103,204.5 us dollars

your math is off

Lorax [2553402]

your math is off mate, by a factor of almost 10. the volume of a golfball is 40 cm³ , not 325. 
other than that, top tier shitpost

edit - dammit Rawk u were 40 seconds faster xD

DefilingDemon [700846]

Your maths is wrong..... No way a gold golf ball weighs 6.3kg surely

 

A standard golf ball has a diameter of 1.68 inches (42.67 mm), so its volume is about 40.7 cm³.

Gold has a density of 19.32 g/cm³.

 

 

A golf-ball-sized sphere of solid gold would weigh roughly:

 

785 grams

0.785 kg

1.73 pounds

 

If the golf-ball-sized solid gold sphere weighs 785 g

 

Current 24K gold price per gram in the UK is about £99.73. 

 

 

So, based on weight of gold alone, not accounting for the fact you woude fool to buy one and pay an idiot tax, a solid gold golf ball would be worth around £78,000 (assuming pure 24K gold).

 

(That's about 100k USD)

 

 

Now for some fun!!

 

If we take that and break it into DP value (singular)... $5/DP is worth 23.5m 

20k x 23.5m = 470bn

 

So the price of a gold golf ball... If it truly was worth It weight in gold is valued at 470bn TCD (although you could add 21% for multi buy)

 

If you do this then it's actually worth 568.7bn TCD... PlUS the points (estimated 100k points) at 32k/point 

571.9bn TCD

Nobody actually offered to RMT their Torn billions for real life millions to OP yet (which is against the rules, so don't do it)? Amazing. 

Gabriel-kafka [2091725]

Torn economy will never make sense to be compared with Real money/ US dollars. Do it with donator pack price in Torn dollar and US dollar. At the end, you will only be scratching your head.

if i bought a festered chicken for 1000$ on torn and in usd it is worth 0$ does that mean 0 dollar usd is worth 1000$ torn money and does that mean i could pay someone 0 usd 10000 times for 1000$ torn city money each time and get banned for rmt?

From the Stash Box description:

 

Favored by item market sellers and store owners alike, this metal stash box is an essential item for those who wish to keep their takings out of the reach of light-fingered individuals. Made from reinforced aluminium alloy, the stash box's divided internal compartments are capable of securing up to $75,000 in Torn City Dollars, or $3m in Vietnamese Dong.

 

That makes the official exchange rate of 1 TCD to 400 VND, or at the current exchange rate, 0.015 USD. Using this exchange rate a PI would cost 7,589,280 USD, which IMO makes more sense

 

Edit: I'm not good at math, that's 40 VND to 1 TCD, or 0.0015 USD. So a PI would cost 758,928 USD. Maybe it's just a really small one
