Just How Much Is $1 Trillion?

posted on Mar 16, 09 05:52AM

And what impact wil this have on metals?

President Obama says his Administration’s stimulus plan could cost more than $1 trillion, and this has many people throwing that number around rather casually.

That got us to thinking about just how much $1 trillion represents.

· $1 trillion is almost enough to buy a controlling interest in all 30 of the companies in the Dow Jones Industrial Average.

· $1 trillion is more than the combined state tax revenue of all 50 states.

· $1 trillion would be enough to buy all of the single-family and multi-family residences in the state of Texas.

· $1 trillion in 2008 dollars would cover the entire U.S. federal budget from George Washington’s inauguration to the end of World War I.

· A stack of 200 $100 bills is roughly an inch thick. If these stacks were set up on end like dominoes, $1 trillion would be the distance from New York City to Chicago.
