In a bag of candy, there are 4 Tootsie Rolls, 3 Lollipops, 5 Hershey Kisses and 6 Starbursts. If you select one piece of candy at random, what is the probability that it will be a lollipop?

I took the one in our office today and I got a 92 I need to go back and look but I think it was about the same I got when I joined. With that score I should have gone to nuke school for the Navy.

Funny you mention that. I tested high enough on the ASVAB in High School that I was offered Nuke School too, decided to get my degree in cow milking instead.

I financed a robotic milking facility last year. It's the future - they are running that 600 cow facility with less than 1 FTE employee and the cows love it. The same place is looking at enough robots to handle their entire 4,500 cow herd.

I'll probably be on the other side of it again someday. I think every single one of my customers has tried to hire me, a couple have approached me about equity partnerships and that's probably how it'll go down.

Never know what tomorrow might hold.

Maybe we should try it. If 50/50 is true and right. Lets change the problem.

Either he will get bit or won't...no matter how many times hhe puts his hand in. 50/50 Holds true.

Go look up the definition of "probability". Tell me where it says money must be involved for a statement to be valid.

"The earth is going to complete a revolution around the sun in 364 days, 23 hours, and 59 minutes, and 59 seconds from now".


What are the only two possible outcomes involved in that statement? (We'll get to the wagering part in a minute)

Probability is a math word that I know.
You are using deflection to evade the bet.
You want to bet or not? There are your two possibilities.
If you bet...50/50 you will lose. If you dont bet, 50/50 I will call you a loser. Choose.
Well?

Nope. Don't want to bet. So the 50/50 stands. Particularly since it has nothing to with betting.


How about you- what is acceptable for you to wager $100 for a chance at $100,000-
a) 1 in 10
b) 1 in 40
c) 1 in 3
d) 1 in 50
e) 1 in 1000
f) 1 in 5
g) 1 in 13
h) 1 in 96
i) 1 in 2

You may pick 3, whichever ones you want, based on your definition of probability.

And now that I've satisfied your "deflecting" issue, here you go:


"The earth is going to complete a revolution around the sun in 364 days, 23 hours, and 59 minutes, and 59 seconds from now".
