Granted. Every time you snap your fingers, $1000 is removed from your bank account and given to some random person on the planet.

Granted. It comes in the form of a mass of pennies, weighing about 550lbs or 250kg and is dropped on them. Your role as an extra in West Side Story causes a massacre.

To add to this, the pennies are moldy and gunky. It's not USD currency but a strange mix of groshcys, Groschen, lira, yen, Franken, even 900 year old Skrupel from all over Europe...

Granted. Unfortunately it comes out of your bank account and Citybank just increased your "overdraft insurance limit" to 1 million dollars.

Granted. You get $1k poorer and it’s only given to people who have way too much already.
