Comparing $1 Million, Billion, Trillion - Wow
 
Found this on-line it checks out to be correctly calculated.
If $1.00 is spent every 1 second, how long to spend; $1 Million, Billion, Trillion ?
$1Million = approximately 12 days
$1Billion = approximately 31 years
$1Trillion = approximately 31,688 years
Wow!!!

I don't know how you would spend a dollar every second. It seems impossible.

Many people who have won a million dollars in state lottery payouts are now BANKRUPT

A million is way too much debt for most individuals, a billion is too much for most companies, and a trillion is too much for most countries. 30 Trillion is way too much debt for ANY country.

The point that I keep posting. Hitler's propaganda minister called it the big lie. You say something over and over again people parrot it and assume it makes sense. Few dare to see our debt is incomprehensible. Many fear others assuming they are stupid, uneducated etc. I see clearly that I do not comprehend a Trillion let alone 30 of them.

Even the term millionaire. It used to mean you have a net worth of a million dollars. Today, far as I can tell, it means you earn a million dollars a year.

Found this little tid bit of information: A trillion dollars laid in the same manner would stretch for 96,906,656 miles, a distance farther than the sun. If you laid one billion dollars side by side like tile, they would cover about four square miles.

So with a 1,000 billions in a trillion, a trillion would cover almost 4 thousand square miles. That is just incomprehensible, and we are working on a 30 trillion dollar debt.

1,000,000,000,000,000, will so be this much. it’s only paper on paper. Don’t matter how many zeros are on end when you can just print up paper.

Have you looked up our national debt?

There used to be a famous saying by apala Titian that spend about a million here another millionaire and soon you have a lot of money spent and we came a billion here and a billion here there and then you became spend a trillion here and a Trillian there but my question to everybody is what comes after a trillion? The answer is bankruptcy for a nation

donassaid 11-11-2021 05:57 AM

Here's another perspective. A billion "minutes" ago, Jesus was walking among His disciples in Jerusalem. Think about that and that 1 trillion is a thousand billion.
