Question:A new thought on how the MRB constant might be used

While using a version of Maple on the inverse symbolic calculator I first described my idea for a new constant in 1999 and other people named it after me, calling it the MRB constant. While looking for an applied math purpose for the MRB constant =sum((-1)^k (k^(1/k)-1),k=1..infinity), I noticed that the absolute value of its summand is the interest rate to multiply an investment k times in k years=k^(1/k)-1. Any ideas on how this might be related to other subjects?
