And $1 BILLION dollars... now we're really getting somewhere...






Next we'll look at ONE TRILLION dollars. This is that number we've been hearing so much about. What is a trillion dollars? Well, it's a million million. It's a thousand billion. It's a one followed by 12 zeros.

You ready for this?
It's pretty surprising.
Go ahead...

Scroll down...








Ladies and gentlemen... I give you $1 trillion dollars...


(And notice those pallets are double stacked.)



So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase "trillion dollars"... that's what they're talking about.
