that is seriously ridiculous when you think about it hey... i see people's wealth in newspapers etc, and its like 4bn, or even 800m or something... and you think, oh yeah whatever thats heaps of money... that is a hell of lot of money, like to the point of spending big your ENTIRE life, and NOT working, and still having a crap load to give to your kids when you die... 1 billion dollars is a thousand million... 1,000,000,000 DOLLARS... my savings are only one of those 0s :P wish i was rich :(
