So to put it into perspective he offered a thought exercise saying, “If a man gave his wife one million dollars and told her to spend $10,000 a day and not to come back until she had spent it all, she’d be back in 3 months. Now if a man gave his wife one billion dollars and told her to spend $10,000 a day and not to come back until she spent it all, she’d be gone for 278 years!!!” Then he flashed that famous Carson grin. Hey. If we gave the Grand Illuminated Washington / Wall Street pooh-bahs one trillion dollars and told them to spend $10,000 a day and not come back until they‘ve spent it all, they’d be gone for 277,778 years!!! Problem solved!! Johnny Carson once joked that it’s hard to appreciate the difference between a Million and a Billion.

Is less dollars supposed to be better than more dollars? We also have 7 Billion people on the planet! That's a big number too...so should we have less people and less dollars? This page is absolutely pointless. Is there a point to this?

(bills coming due) How big is the one dollar billding which those numbers create? Funny how our government and the tax payers can be so far in debt that there is no chance that it could ever be paid off and yet the bankers and the Federal Reserve always seem to come out with smiles on their faces. Could it be that it's planned that way? Visit the Freedom Force International website to learn more about our collectivist government, the monster called the Federal Reserve. The worst is yet to come, so it wouldn't be a bad idea to be informed about it all - how it came about, why we're here, and what can be done about it.

Your caluclation is totally off on the second figure. $3,000 is 6 stacks of $500 dollars. I am sorry to say that 5 ($100) bills does not measure 2" high ! It's not even close! In fact $6000 does not even measure 1" high. So this messes up every other calculation exponentially. the graffics are really cool, and you had me going for a little bit. sorry try again. this is stupid with a capital B…

According to the above website, $900 million = a cube 25' tall x 40' long x 31'3" wide = 31,250 cubic feet 59,185,152 cubic feet (north tower) Divided by 31,250 cubic feet (size of 900 million one dollar bills) = 1893.92 cubes of 900 million one dollar bills. 1893.92 cubes x $900 million = $1,704,528,000,000 which is $1.7 Trillion. Both the south and north tower would come to $3.4 Trillion. The total combined bailout package between the taxpayers, Treasury Dept. and Federal Reserve is now...$5 Trillion? I've lost track.... Yupp...they said the World Trade Center would be rebuilt. Only we are paying for it 10 times over. Okey, the dimension of the NORTH Tower of the World Trade Center was 208′ x 208′ x 1386′
that comes to 59,185,152 cubic feet.

According to the above website, $900 million = a cube 25′ tall x 40′ long x 31′3″ wide = 31,250 cubic feet

59,185,152 cubic feet (north tower) Divided by 31,250 cubic feet (size of 900 million one dollar bills) = 1893.92 cubes of 900 million one dollar bills.

1893.92 cubes x $900 million = $1,704,528,000,000 which is $1.7 Trillion.

Both the south and north tower would come to $3.4 Trillion.

The total combined bailout package between the taxpayers, Treasury Dept. and Federal Reserve is now…$5 Trillion?
I’ve lost track….

Yupp…they said the World Trade Center would be rebuilt. Only we are paying for it 10 times over.

My guess is that most of that isn't really printed at all. Just digits in computers, credit cards, and so on. And much of the paper "money" is just cheques written for any amount.
