How do you figure?
Say there are 100 million yahoo users. If everyone of them gave $1 to every other yahoo user, we'd all have given away 100 million and received 100 million. We'd be right back where we started!

Most of the users would run out of money when most of the users had not yet received any. For example, if each Yahoo user had only $100,000, then after we had done what you suggest for 100,000 Yahoo users, they would be rich, but all the others (millions of users) would have no money left, so they could not give $1 (or any other amount) for any of the other users.

So, I give every Yahoo user $1, and they all give me $1. The way I see it, I am out the cost of sending the $1 to everyone.
