Sadly, this is what we are going to be making our grandchildren and great grandchildren pay back.

If I were a small child, could read and understand, I would start taking Paxil right now, I would be so depressed!

I agree with you....it's Mind Blowing

Wow! That is a LOT of moolah there!

YoRkiE Te aMo · 03-12-2009, 07:57 PM

Just think what the WORLD would have gotten in the 50s and 60s for that kind of money...NO POVERTY ! anywhere...
if it were in the 1950s
with 2.5 billion people in the world...
each person would be getting $400.00
which would be equal to 6 months wages !
YIKES !!!

LOL......may as well laugh as to cry - that philosophy has worked for me numerous times!

OMG that's crazy! At first I didn't understand because I didn't even see the little man right away. I was actually surprised at how little a million looks.

Lou · 03-13-2009, 12:10 PM

Sigh. I still have trouble wrapping my mind around that much money!

alaskayorkie · 03-13-2009, 12:15 PM

Wow...Cool pictures.

ARCHIE · 03-13-2009, 12:17 PM

Just think, that money used to belong to all of us

DvlshAngel985 · 03-13-2009, 12:57 PM

When I got to the bottom, my jaw litterally dropped. That is insane!!! Judging from the way a millionlooks, I thought, "Maybe a Trillion isn't as much as I thougth..." then I got to the bottom. WOW!!!!

Sadly, that money has yet to be even earned by any of us - it came from China - borrowed funds.

Safire · 03-15-2009, 05:32 AM

I'd like to have the million so I can walk around with it in my grocery bag please!

crystalsmom · 03-15-2009, 06:40 AM

jencar98,I agree it is borrowed funds from China and when can we ever pay it back?

I do think it's a gamble but in great need to jump start this global economy. When we start talking numbers we so often lose touch and I heard someone explain a trillion this way......if you wanted to give it away you would have to give a million away every day, back to the day Jesus was born. Does that compute

Where's my calulator when I need it.

Gingergirlsmom · 03-15-2009, 06:49 AM

This whole situation is really quite frightening...really...very.

mimimomo · 03-15-2009, 07:59 AM

Wow, you can build a city on top of that!
