Just thought I would add my two cents, Ha Ha!
One dollar in FRNs is about .004 inches thick.
A stack of 100 FRNs would be a little less than half inch thick.
1000 FRNs would make a stack four inches thick.
10,000 would be 40 inches or three feet four inches high.
100,000 would make a stack aver 33 feet high.
1,000,000 FRNs would make a stack over 330 feet high.
It would take 1,666,375 FRNs to make a stack as high as the Washington Monument.
One hundred million FRNs stacked one on top the other would be taller than 26 Empire State Buildings or over 6.3 miles high.
A billion would be over 60 miles high.
10 billion over 600 miles high.
100 billion over 6,000 miles.
1 trillion over 60,000 miles.
And finally, a stack of FRNs equal to the federal budget would be would reach nearly to the moon or over 220,000 miles. |
Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.--Benjamin Franklin
