How Big is $1 Trillion?

    It's hard to fathom this number.  

    I get dizzy thinking about this, but a few calculations I did which give me mild vertigo...

• If you stacked 1 trillion USD bills vertically, you'd reach about 1/3 of the way to the moon. 
• If you lied that stack on it's side, you'd have it go around the equator 2.73 times.

• If you got a $1 per heart beat in your lifetime, you'd need to live 349 lifetimes to get to $1 trillion.

• If you made the median Neenah household income, you'd need to work 13.5M years to get to $1 trillion.  That means that if you just made it this year, you'd been working since the miocene.

• If you made minimum wage, and worked every living hour, you'd still need to work another 200,699 lifetimes to get to $1 trillion.
