<![CDATA[What a Trillion Dollars Looks Like]]>Believe it or not, this next little pile is $1 million dollars (100 packets of $10,000). You could stuff that into a grocery bag and walk around with it.

And $1 BILLION dollars... now we're really getting somewhere...

Next we'll look at ONE TRILLION dollars. This is that number we've been hearing about so much. What is a trillion dollars? Well, it's a million million. It's a thousand billion. It's a one followed by 12 zeros.

You ready for this?

It's pretty surprising. Ladies and gentlemen... I give you $1 trillion dollars...

So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase "trillion dollars"... that's what they're talking about.
