Thanks! That's as close as I'll come to seeing that much cash.

 

awesome link.. i think all the world leaders should pull a Scrooge McDuck and dive head first into a trillion dollars in change.. or hell.. it can even be in gold coinage if they like.. the end result is all that matters

you've never seen that amount of money either, peasant.
