One way to think of it would be to consider it as pay for rendering a service and completing it ahead of schedule.  Or you could just decline the payment but vow to taunt him for the rest of his life for doubting you.  Or you could just settle for the foreman paying for lunch next time.

Well . . . I guess you'll have to decide between the principle (you're judgment was obviously better than his) or the money in your pocket (which you will probably not invest wisely).  I'm of the opinion that bragging rights are worth more than the money in my pocket that I'll most likely spend foolishly the next weekend.

Have a 3rd party hold all wagers and award the victor.

Take the $100 and buy a new coffee pot and popcorn popper for the office.  That way you can graciously make coffee and popcorn for him and the bet will not soon be forgotten.

I like that idea - bragging rights and a good nose rub all rolled into one.
