A father complained that his son's allowance of $5 per week was too much. The son replied, "Okay, Dad. How about this?
You give me a penny for the first day of the month, 2 cents for
the next, 4 cents for the next, 8 cents for the next, and so on for
every day of the month." The father readily consented. Who was
