The term a trillion dollars has been thrown around in these recent weeks.  Like any term or phrase that is constantly repeated it tends to lose its value over time.  I have heard the trillion dollar remark thrown around so much that I happened to lose scope of exactly how much money that is.  Thanks to a post I found on Tony Rush’s blog showing exactly what a trillion dollars would look like I have regained the word value of a trillion. From now on I think I will use the term while extending both arms at full length and using emphasis in my voice. If you have never seen how much a trillion dollars is, visit Tony’s post here.
