    ironically, I doubt you could count to 30 billion in 1 year…shows how much money that is.

      Once you get into the millions, it takes well over a second to recite each digit of a number. One million is only 1/30,000th of the way in.

      A year is less than 32 million seconds.

      Even if you skipped to 1 million, and somehow managed to get through each number in only a second, and counted every single second of every single day without breaking for sleep, you still would only get a little over a thousandth of the way through 30 billion.
