Assuming it was federal minimum wage of $7.25/hr and he was working 60 hour weeks with 20 hours of time and a half pay at $10.875 it would take exactly 9,149,826 years working 3120 hours a year for a total of 28,547,457,120 hours worked. Or if satan is nice and lets him have more time off and jeff only has to work 40 hours a week then he will have to work 15,994,695 years or a total of 33,268,965,600 hours. If only hell were real so billionaires could be adequately punished.

Im no religious person, but given this afterlife punishment has an end to it (once he finally finishes working all those hours), wouldn't this be more a purgatory than a hell?

Naa because after working really hard and doing everything he's supposed to do he'll find out it's all a big lie and he will be staying right there at the bottom, forever.

No because after he accumulates all the wealth he had in life he just gets to be eternally tortured like every one else but with a useless collection of acquired wealth
