A BILLION TRILLION dollars

Jameson's funny for this morning:

This morning Jameson was singing "All I Want for Christmas is You"... only instead of "you" he said "a billion trillion dollars!" (Yeah. I am high on his priority list). He then proceeded to explain to me how if someone were to give him that, he wouldn't say no.

Apparently I wasn't getting it. Because he had to explain to me how much money this exactly was. I asked how many zeros it had and he said he didn't know. But he explained to me how much a billion is. Then how much more it was to have a billion of trillions. "You could like... build 8 temples with that! AND... you could BUY CHRISTMAS!"

I, being the practical one, told him that you cannot buy Christmas.

He just was in awe of this idea of having a billion trillion dollars. He said "There is no way you could ever spend that much money!" "You'd be surprised," I said. "If you build 8 temples and Christmas, you'd make a dent."

But let it be written, for Christmas, Jameson wants a BILLION-----TRILLION----DOLLARS!

  1. I, too, would have a hard time deciding between a billion trillion dollars and Mark.

    I could probably CLONE Mark and have some money left over!
