Granite Geek: How much is 700 billion?

  • bob · 1 year ago
    How much is $700,000,000,000? With a guess at about 200 million adults (over 18), that would be a check from Uncle Sam to each of us about $350,000. Figuring they would take taxes out of it that would still leave well over $250,000 for us to put back into the economy, Paying off our houses, sending a couple kids to college, taking a real vacation.

    Hey I know that it will never happen... but I can dream!

    I think you better check your math: $700,000,000,000 divided by 200,000,000 is only $3,500 per person.

    I concur with math wiz. People need to start calculating correctly.

    Woah! Intriguing stats! Pretty frivolous compared to the recent bailout but entertaining nevertheless. :)
