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 do a buyout and keep the cows on 466A

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.

Say the population of the USA is 300,000,000..............spread the $1.3B to everyone, that's $4.3mil each.

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