talkpoliticsThe modern world talks extraordinarily huge numbers like billions. Lets figure this out...
1 hour = 3600 seconds
1 day = 86400 seconds
1 year = 31,536,000 seconds
32 x 31,536,000 = 1,009,152,000.
So about a billion seconds ago it was 1978!
So when we talk about the trillion dollar Greek bailout, or the American debt it's incredible.
It would take 32,000 years to spend a dollar a second, assuming you earned $3600/hr, even while sleeping.
