> A billion is a tough number to understand

I love using the money analogy for this:

"If you earned $1 every single second, that's $60 per minute, $3,600 per hour, $86,400 per day. More than most people make in a year!

Assuming no tax or expenditure whatsoever, it would take only 11 days to become a millionaire at that salary.

It would take over 31 _years_ to become a billionaire.

And that's only a mere $1 billion, some people are worth _hundreds_ of billions."
