How much is a Million? How much is a Billion? How much is a Trillion? The next time you hear someone rather casually throw around a number that includes the word "billion", think about it. A billion is a difficult number to comprehend.

A million seconds is 12 days. A billion seconds is 31 years A million seconds is 12 days. A billion seconds is 31 years. A trillion seconds is 31,688 years. Billion 2010 31 1979 Trillion 2010 -31,688 29,678 BC

A million minutes ago was – 1 year, 329 days, 10 hours and 40 minutes ago. A billion minutes ago was just after the time of Christ.

A million hours ago was in 1885 A million hours ago was in 1885. A billion hours ago man had not yet walked on earth.

Trillion = 1,000,000,000,000. This country has not existed for a trillion seconds. Western civilization has not been around a trillion seconds. One trillion seconds ago – 31,688 years – Neanderthals stalked the plains of Europe.

A billion credit cards combined would weigh the same as: Now that I've defined a billion, it might be useful to try to describe it in terms we should all be able to understand: money--or something as useful as it, credit cards (because very few people can even dream of owning a billion dollars)... A billion credit cards combined would weigh the same as: 1562 hippopotamuses 52 blue whales 78 brachiosaures A billion credit cards laid end-to-end would reach: 2.2 times around the earth Down the length of the Amazon River 13 times Over 938,000 US football fields More than 14 times the length of the Great Wall of China A billion credit cards stacked up would be as high as: 120 Mt. Everests 7,219 Great Pyramids

A tightly-packed stack of new $1,000 bills totaling $1 billion would be 63 miles high. In comparison, jet planes fly at 30,000 - 40,000 feet (5.7 - 7.7 miles high).

A million dollars ago was five (5) seconds ago at the U. S A million dollars ago was five (5) seconds ago at the U.S. Treasury rate of spending. A billion dollars ago was late yesterday afternoon at the U.S. Treasury rate of spending. The estimated population of the United States is 309,664,667, so each citizen's share of this debt is $44,742.46. The National Debt has continued to increase an average of $4.13 billion per day since September 28, 2007! Concerned?
