IT'S JUST A TRILLION DOLLARS

MILLION - BILLION – TRILLION….

We toss those numbers around like they are popcorn or throwed rolls for Lamberts Restaurant.

A 400 million bailout here... a 3 billion bailout there.... It's only money.

Drudge had a story on his site that said U.S. Pledges Top $7.7 Trillion to Ease Frozen Credit (Bloomberg)

It is easy to lose sight of such numbers, because they are so casually tossed around. Translating numbers into time can give us a better sense of their magnitude. A million seconds, for example is 11.6 days. A billion seconds is 31.7 years.

One American trillion (ie. 10¹²) would equal about 31,688 years 269 days 17 hours 34 minutes 25 seconds. (Leap years counted)

So that 7.7 trillion dollars equates to 2,440 centuries.

This is getting nuts folks.

I think the best thing to say is…”Even so, come quickly Lord Jesus.”
