How much is one $Trillion ?
Ever wonder how to figure out how much $Trillion is? No doubt you’ve heard how big our national debt and our deficit is. While I’ve vowed NOT to make this a political website, I do feel it’s important to put this in perspective.
Growing every year, the debt stands today at a staggering $11.4 trillion — equivalent to about $37,000 for each and every American. And it’s expanding by over $1 trillion a year.
Well, I just wanted to put in perspective exactly how much money 1$Trillion is.
See if you can relate to this: If you count $1 dollar every second it would take you 31,700 years to count it!
Don’t believe me? See the math below:
Number of seconds in a day = 86,400
Number of days it would take you to count $1Billion = 11,574
Number of years it would take you to count $1Billion = 31.7 years
Number if years it would take you to count $1Trillion = 31,700 years
That’s right, 31,700 years to count $1Trillion and that’s how fast our national debt EXPANDS each year. How can this madness continue?
What should you do? The only thing I can recommend is to start taking steps NOW to insulate yourself from this. Eventually, this is going to cause a drastic affect on every American whether you like it or not.
Tomorrow, I’ll post some suggestions as to what you can start to do NOW.
So the next time you hear that our government is going to spend $1Trillion dollars on something, remember it would take you at least 31,700 years to count it!
In the meantime, I think I’ll just let this sink in…..
