But Trump's spawn getting 2 BILLION dollars from the Saudis should never be mentioned...

People sometimes think a billion is kinda like a big million.

They forget that the POOREST billionaire could spend a million dollars a day for nearly 3 years. The richest billionaires could spend a million dollars a day for over FIVE HUNDRED YEARS!

The example I like to use to show the difference between a million and billion is 1 million seconds = about 12 days 1 billion seconds = about 32 years

That makes too much sense. Not enough 8’s, 12’s, or 5280’s. Not even a single unit defined by a king’s body part.
