I was going to say, more like 13 cents a month, assuming 2% returns, but if you can't get risk-free returns that exceed inflation, then you can't really give anyone any amount per month perpetually with any amount of billions.
I think it's an interesting question, can you and should you even have the option of a risk-free real return? Why should anyone collect money for neither working nor taking risk? It's widely assumed that's what capitalists do, but maybe there is increasing evidence they don't these days because markets are becoming too efficient, and maybe they shouldn't?
