Nov 6, 2023 at 20:51 comment added codewarrior0 The original question asked about a week, a month, and a year. My napkin math told me that the optimal strategy will be different for each timespan, with "always" strategies winning for less than a week and more than two weeks, and "adaptive" strategies winning in between.

Nov 2, 2023 at 18:58 comment added Nuclear Hoagie I'm not convinced this is correct. Even if you find \$728 on Day 1, it will only take you on average 4 more days to find \$1274, leaving you on average 9 days to make an additional \$546/day. Even if you earn absolutely nothing on those 4 days, it's still worth it.
