Perspective on a Trillion !!!!

[dq409]

count up the money for Iraq,,, (no political agenda intended)

Trying to get your head around the concept of a billion dollars or a trillion dollars?
Think in the terms of equating one dollar with one second.

One Million seconds ago was 11 days ago.
One Billion seconds ago was 1975, or 32 years ago.
One Trillion seconds ago was 30,000 BC !!!!

A recent projected cost of the war in Iraq is $1.6 Trillion.


Just something to think about,,,,

So dq: At that rate, what will a set of 583 or 690 heads cost in one billion seconds?
