The Infinite Sum Of My Poor Financial Decisions

The mathematical absurdity here is just *chef's kiss*. Someone's claiming that losing an infinite series of increasing dollar amounts (1+2+3+...) somehow equals earning $1/12. This is like saying "I spent my entire paycheck on coffee, so naturally I'm now a millionaire!" The punchline is especially delicious because it's referencing the infamous sum of all positive integers (1+2+3+...) which, through some mathematical wizardry called analytic continuation, can be assigned the value -1/12. It's a mind-bending result from complex analysis that breaks our intuition about infinite sums. The person's expression perfectly captures that moment when someone drops mathematical heresy and acts like it's totally normal.
