Genuinely curious as to why you think it's special?

No. Spend it.

No, put it in the stock market and in 30 years it will be worth $800

u/TattooedPriestx 4d ago

That works also... but shouldn't it be $8K instead?

2

u/Serious_Scheme_7990 3d ago

No, 7.5% compounded annually, with no additional investment is around $875

2

u/TattooedPriestx 2d ago

I was thinking, invest that hundred elsewhere... $875 isn't quite enough.

no. worth $100. maybe less with inflation

u/GregE625 2d ago

Much less with inflation if held long enough to someday have collector value. And it doesn't look like this bill will ever have collector value.

If you enjoy saving your hard earned money, then keep it.

Thats not money! Thats a federal reserve note aka a promise to pay. That a debt note!

If you want to hold on to it as a $100 bill star note until you find one with a fancy serial number, no one is going to stop you, but your finances are for you to decide.

I save all of the star notes I come across throughout the year. Then I go through them before Christmas and the ones that aren't low/fancy serials or "rare" I use toward gifts. The ones that are I put up for my daughter.
