PayPal Credits Man $92 QUADRILLION – Becomes Richest Person Ever

PayPal made a little error. Ok, maybe it was the biggest error involving money ever? They credited Pennsylvania man, Chris Reynolds, $92 QUADRILLION which easily made him the richest person...ever! Keep reading to see what he said he would do with the money, what PayPal did after, and more.

From Inquisitr:

The Pennsylvania man, Chris Reynolds, typically makes about $100 a month in transactions, trading and selling vintage car parts online.

After doing a double take, Reynolds decided to log out and check his PayPal account later. Sadly, the $92 quadrillion was gone and the balance was back to normal, sources at CNN say.

But, for a few moments at least, Reynolds was the world’s richest man, by a huge margin. That beats out the world’s previously most wealthy man, Carlos Slim, who has a fortune valued at over $73 billion. More than that, according to Gizmodo, Reynolds temporarily held more than 1300 times all the world’s money.

Actually, when asked what he would have done had he been able to keep all that dough, Reynolds offered a more practical suggestion. Reynolds says that with the vast fortune he “probably would have paid down the national debt.”

After correcting the error in the man’s account, PayPal contacted Reynolds and offered to make a donation of an unspecified amount to a charity of his choice as apology.

What would you do if you had that much money?
