Mayor "Diamond" Joe Quimby is planning on retiring in 15 years and has begun the necessary planning. Given his lifestyle of excesses, he estimates that he will need $500,000 per year to maintain his current level of comfort. However, also due to his lifestyle of excesses, he will live for only ten years after the date he retires.

If Mayor Quimby can invest money at 13%, how much must he embezzle and deposit each year in order to have the money required to fund his 10 retirement income payments?
