I miss the days when we said, "billionaire -- that's billion, with a B" to distinguish it from "millionaire." We've become too accepting of the concept of billionaires. I don't think most people understand that a billion is a thousand millions. No one needs that much money.
@anon_opin We're not too far off someone being the first trillionaire! I give it five years. Several people floating around $200 billion today, who are projected to elapse the milestone in the not too distant future
