1000 Boxes

Logic Level 1

Supposedly, 1000 People put their numbered $1 into 1000 numbered boxes (The boxes' number doesn't match with the Bill) (each with the person's numbered dollar) an if each person finds their own bill, they keep their bill, but if they fail they give the money to a homeless man (who will be very happy). What solution gives the best probability of getting your money back?

Rules:

  1. You can only discuss with the other people in a separate room
  2. You can only open half of the boxes to check
  3. No tampering the boxes
You open a random box 50 times use a random dollar bill to direct to the bx with the number on it (Repeat) Do Nothing and run out wondering why yo took the bet
