Found this online and figured this was worth sharing.

Ever wondered what a trillion dollars looks like? Here's a handy illustration...

Alright, so here's a $100 dollar bill.

A packet of one hundred Benjamins is $10,000. Pretty small, and can easily fit in your pocket.

Now, 100 of these packets nets us $1 million dollars. Now, you can't exactly fit that in your pocket, but a bag should do.

With 100 of these piles, you've got $100 million dollars. Now there's some serious dough.

Multiply that by 10, and we're at $1 billion dollars.

And finally, to get to $1 trillion dollars...

And the US debt you keep hearing so much about? That's 16 of these. Which looks like...

Big Bad wolf could casually blow all those money houses down

What the Big Bad Wolf doesn't know is that the government spent an extra 20 trillion dollars to reinforce the money houses with a platinum & diamond alloy. The government lolz at the taxpayers....

Pffft this what ONE HUNDRED TRILLION looks like:

What? Never said that it had to be USD :P

And if you're lucky, maybe that'll buy you some eggs at the market.

Inflation is funny like that.
Technically it is defunct so you shouldn't be able to even buy eggs. Unless of course you sell it to collectors for other currency (about USD $4 atm?) IIRC the (hyper)inflation in Zimbabwe is prob the most outrageous in the entire known history of mankind so far right? O___o

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @BigOnYa My dad recently bought a spare Series X off of me, got game pass, and saw Madden '24 on Game Pass, decided to try it out.

    ...He was a bit taken aback by the 60GB download size. Poor guy's still living in the 90s!

  • AdenTheThird @ AdenTheThird:
    @K3Nv2 He was looking into consoles for his house anyway (for my younger siblings and himself) and I had a spare XSX and Switch I ended up selling him at pretty steep cuts. I would just give them to him, but I did buy them with the intent to sell them... and college is super expensive.
