If the growth is exponential, I still don’t think there’s a paradox—sure, you’re incentivized to wait forever, but I’m already incentivized to wait forever with my real life investments. The only thing that stops me from real life investing my money forever is that sometimes I have things (not included in the toy problem) that I really want to buy with that money.
