Warren Buffett offers a freeroll to $ 1 billion

You you know basketball? The men's NCAA basketball is familiar? Here is your opportunity of freeroller $ 1 billion, which could be paid to you through 25 M$ per year for 40 years. Unless you prefer the simple payment of $ 500 million into your bank account?

To do this, you need to get a "perfect bracket NCAA", in other words, guess, before the start of the games, which teams will win their games to access the following rounds. One who can be found before March 18 the final table won.

You can imagine, the "perfect bracket" has never been recorded in history, even though tens of millions of paris are registered each year. To give you an idea, approximately 1% of bettors are able to perfectly predict the teams that pass the first round. And we are still very far from the "perfect bracket".

As a reminder, in 2010, Alex Herman (an autistic student) had managed to predict the first two rounds perfectly. His performance had tongues wagging the international press which assessed his chances of such a success at 1 in 13 million.

For beginners of sport and betting, 9 trillions estimated chances of successes. For more experienced punters, chances become best falling to 1 out of 128 billion, which should not worry who won $ 37 million daily in 2013 (estimated its forture to more than 75 billion dollars).

With these sides, the 83-year-old man will be not too worry to have to pay this sum.

This advertising campaign disguised as a freeroll, follows the association last Tuesday, Buffett and Quicken Loans Inc. insurance giant.
