at $0.01 each, $0.10 would get you 10 beans, $1.00 = 100, $10 = 1000, $100 = 10000, $1000 = 100,000 beans

Using the sprouting calculator site it shows 100k beans bringing $40 worth in sprouts a month.

So how is it a no? is the sprouting calculator wrong or are people confused with how this works? Everytime I've done any calculations it doesn't look anywhere near worth it to invest in beans, am I confused? if so, please someone explain how...

I missed a zero in the number of beans in my previous reply but, regardless, what was wrong in that other post was, "so you basically get rewarded with 4 beans per $100 worth of beans?". This is because a time frame wasn't specified - it wouldn't have been off by too much if "every day" was specified, for example - but also because $100 gets you 10k beans and that should bring in an average of 400 beans per month (or, more correctly, you have a high probability of winning a full 1000 bean block every 2.5 months).

So, no, $100 worth of beans does not get you 4 more beans.
