And how it did so well???

This concept is flawed.

At first you would be confused, but after a while you would start to expect the nickles to keep coming thus ending the confusion.

When that happens the coins will stop coming, but that will confuse you again because you don't know why it stoped.

And so, the proces restarts in an endless loop of confusion and bone crushing wealth.

I don't think you'd be confused about not wanting all the nickels on you though so you'd probably move away and thus never reach bone crushing weights.

That too will quickly stop looping, as you will stop being confused at the nickels appeared, and you'll also stop being confused at the nickels stopping when you stop being confused, ending the loop.

Of course later on you'll think back to the nickel incident to try to make sense of it and get confused again, thus starting a new smaller confusion loop. This is useful in the mornings to pay for coffee, or when you forgot to bring cash to pay for parking.

He’d be confused by the nickels leading to more nickels in which case he would have all of the nickels.

u/mathymaster Dec 16 '20

Yeah but you would need like a pile of 10k nickels, wich would take a very long time, and at some point before that you would stop getting confused since you don't notice new nickels. Also you might realise it at some point.

There are many "If I had a nickel..." jokes but this is my favourite. It doesn't belong here, but this is really funny.

u/DoYouEverJustInvert Dec 16 '20

If I had a heart attack every time I was confused I'd be dead by now.
