I would certainly learn the difference between a 1,000,000 and a 1,000,000,000 very quickly.

Well, according to Trump, he's worth $10 billion. If the average price of home here was $200k [that's a little low] I would own one and he would own the other 50,000.

I think 5,000 houses would be enough for everyone I know.

Respectfully, I would add three more zeros to my new fortune. A million doesn't go as far as it used to. Could you imagine?

$1,000,000=A million
$1,000,000,000=A billion.

I just need enough to get us to TV.

I would purchase a new Electric and a new Gas cart then decide which one is better.

I'd spend most of it on whisky and wild women. The rest I'd spend foolishly.

Many people have difficulty understand just how much a billion is.

I once heard this example. One million dollars in one hundred dollar bills would create a stack one foot high. One billion dollars in one hundred dollar bills would create a stack as tall as the Empire State building without the antenna.

You must be using the calulator the federal government uses, their numbers never add up either

That's why Dr. B. said "Many people have difficulty understand just how much a billion is. "
