One Trillion Dollars = A Thousand Billion Dollars = A Million Million Dollars.
If you had a supersonic, '68 Rally Sport Camaro and a roll of a trillion one dollar bills on the back, and you took off at Mach 1 trailing ones behind you, it would take FOURTEEN YEARS to trail off a trillion one dollar bills.
To get an idea of how much a trillion dollars might be, Glenn Beck started a Stimulus Meter at the start of his show Monday. It clicked of $15 million dollars every second for the entire one hour show. It logged approx. $54 billion. That is only 5% of a trillion dollars.
"A trillion here and a trillion there and pretty soon you're talking about some real money."
