Just how much is a billion?
 
If you stacked up 1 billion pennies the stack would be about 944 miles tall and would weigh 2,790 tons.

If you started counting the seconds right now you'd get to a billion 31.7 years from now.

If you took a billion steps and averaged 2 feet per step you will have traveled a distance equal to circling the planet over 15 times.

Next?

If you spent a billion dollars you would get a billion dollars worth of stuff.

If you took a billion one-dollar bills and laid them across the Earth, a lot of them would probably get stolen.

If you had a billion dollars, you'd be rich.

If you stacked a billion Marillion albums on tip of each other you'd have a billion reasons to stab your ears out.

I'd say mega-rich! If you had a billion and started spending $50,000 a day, every day, you wouldn't run out of money for almost 55 years.

I'm listening to Season's End at the moment....

If you wrote a song that is a billion years long, then you'd need a billion of them to be as long as a Bull Of Heaven song

If you put nine zeros after a one you get a billion.

If you had a billion and started spending $50,000 a day, every day, then you're probably an *******.

If someone wants to give me a billion Euro, thanks! But it still isn't enough to make me listen to Captain Beefheart again! ZING! That's for the Marillion quip, Frownie! :ar_15s:
