What A Trillion Dollars Looks Like

A member sent me this link and I really liked it so I thought I would share it here. The original site I got this from was

$100

Let’s start with a simple $100 bill – nearly everyone has seen one, and most have used one at some point:

$100Ahh, hello Mr. Franklin…

 

$10,000

Now, lets take it a step further – a packet of $100 bills is less than 1/2 inch thick and is worth $10,000. This can easily fit in your pocket and can be used to buy a cheap car or a year of your kid’s tuition:

$10,000Vegas, here we come!

 

$1,000,000

This little pile of cash can easily fit into any backpack and weighs just about 22 lbs. Just in case you didn’t believe that those criminals in the movies couldn’t fit a million bucks in those briefcases, it’s very possible! You’re not likely to ever see this amount of cash in one place unless you work in a bank or are a high-level drug dealer:

$1,000,000What, you’re just gonna stand there? Get the money!

 

$100,000,000

Here we have $100 million – neatly fits on any standard pallet, weighing in at a little over one ton. You could stash this away in your bedroom and never work another day in your life. No one will ever see this kind of money in one place except Britney Spears and other celebrities:

$100,000,000That money isn’t going anywhere without a forklift…

 

$1,000,000,000

Now we’re talking big bucks… $1 billion – ten pallets worth of cold, hard cash. This is more than some countries’ GDP (Gross Domestic Product):

$1,000,000,000You wouldn’t even know what to do with this kind of money…

 

$1,000,000,000,000

Finally, here we are – one trillion dollars. That’s twelve zeros, go ahead and count ‘em! One MILLION million, or one thousand billion… This is just an obscene amount of money – the dollar value is more than all that are currently in circulation:

$1,000,000,000,000Can you still see the guy in the red shirt?
