Leave it to a billionaire to always make a bet they know they can win.
We know that Warren Buffett stepped down as CEO at Berkshire Hathaway this year, and per Front Office Sports, the annual March Madness contest at the company will continue. That's the one in which employees were offered $1 billion or $1 million a year for life if they put together a perfect bracket.
You know what else we do know? Perfect brackets. Folks. They're impossible to do.
It could technically happen, sure. Someone could technically put together the perfect bracket. But the chances of it happening are one in 9 quintillion if you choose randomly. If you actually cram and try and use your knowledge to put a bracket together, your odds actually increase to one in 120 billion.
