Idea How much is a trillion?

You've heard of the billion, but what's next in line in the inflation craze?

Let's ask the number one news channel in 'America'..



The guy on the left is particularly engaged.

Here is some of the mind boggling stuff...

quote:

One trillion $1 bills stacked one on top of the other would reach nearly 68,000 miles (about 109,400 kilometers) into the sky, or about a third of the way from the Earth to the moon.


quote:

To put a trillion dollars in context, if you spend a million dollars every day since Jesus was born, you still wouldn't have spent a trillion


quote:

A million seconds is about 11½ days. A billion seconds is about 32 years, and a trillion seconds is 32,000 years


All financial market interventions, loans, bailouts total more than $7 trillion...so far

"To put a trillion dollars in context, if you spend a million dollars every day since Jesus was born, you would own pretty much everything."

1,000,000,000,000.00 USD United States
=
28,540,000,000,000.00 ZWD Zimbabwe Dollars

Also note that on February 2nd, Zibabwe devaluated their currency again, for the second time.


1,000,000,000,000 old ZWD = 1 ZWD new.

So its actually 28,540,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.00

Can someone tell me how much that is?

And what about if you take the original value from the first time they devalued the currency.

28,540,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.00

FUCK ME...
