What does a trillion Dollars Look Like?

It isn't easy - that's for sure. But thankfully some people have put together a series of graphics that will help you understand. See below:

Here is 100 Million Dollars

It is about the size of one standard pallet stacked with stacks of $100 bills.

Looks sorta reasonable, right? OK, then....

Here is One BILLION Dollars

That's 10 pallets next to the man and you can see that our debt is growing...1 BILLION Dollars is a lot of mulah in real life.

Here's where it starts to get a bit overwhelming...

One Trillion Dollars

But that doesn't EVEN come close to What the National DEBT is as of Today
