Quote from pupu:

BTW, what do you call 1000 X TRILLION?




Keeping things in perspective...

1. $1,000,000 in $1000 bills, stacked = 9"

2. $1,000,000,000, in $1000 bills, stacked = height of 75 story building.

3. $1,000,000,000,000, in $1000 bills stacked = height of 75,000 story building.... and we're in debt to the tune of 15 of those... soon to be 18, under Odumbo's hand.

A year ago we would have had Kassz, Olias and a handful of other bootlickers telling us we don't know what's "good" for us.

It's good to see that, while the "end of the world through hyperinflation" threads have stopped, the "end of the world through QE" ones are still ongoing. Such constancy of purpose is truly refreshing!

Cool stuff. Learning new stuff everyday!

How much $ you need to get from earth to the moon in 100$ bills?

How much longer before US debt hits that mark?
