How would you rate the investment?

The states of Missouri and Arkansas came with it. We did the French a solid.

Expenditure vs result, not so great so far, as far as Leavitt, time will tell.

The actual Louisiana Purchase cost approximately 3 to 4 cents per acre at the time of the agreement in 1803. Lil Tommy Jefferson was probably a slick operator back in the day !

You know he got right back up after that picture, right?

Also, do they not teach inflation in whatever BFE shithole you're from?

Yes I’m aware he got right back up after that picture. Who do you think threw the pick in the endzone to seal the game?

Tee hee ! If we could sell the state of Louisiana back to France today, we might possibly double our money on that 3 cents an acre deal !


Anybody got a few extra pennies ?


Wait, what ??? There used to be 3 cent coins ????

Total Purchase Price Today: The $15 million paid to France equals roughly $444.66 million in modern purchasing power.

SEC schools have spent well over $1B in stadium renovations in just the last few years. Florida alone is getting ready to spend another $1B.

It’s probably the best deal ever made.
1/4 of the United States for a half billion dollars is nuts. That’ll get you 10 years of Kiffin at lsu these days.

I know it sounds weird, but that's actually a three cent nickel.
