Here's a trillion dollars. That's $1,000,000,000,000, how much money Musk will soon make.
The green slice is the amount that Republicans just voted for him to have via tax cuts in the "Big Beautiful Bill." The money that will need to come from our now invisible stacks one way or another.

Here's our guy standing next to $500 billion, the net worth of the world's richest man, Elon Musk. That's a football field packed solid, about 42" high. This amount of money could physically fit into 10 Boeing C-17s, but its weight would require that 70 of them transport it.

Cool. What about a billion? This is where we start to really lose our sense of scale. As a reminder, a billion is 1,000 millions.
Even though this would fit into the beds of 2 Ford F-150s, the total weight (over 22,000 pounds) would mean you'd need at least 10 truckloads to carry it.

Next up: the median lifetime earnings of an American as of 2025. This is around $1.85 million. It weighs about 40 pounds, and would fit into a backpack with plenty of room left over.

We've gotten so used to hearing a million thrown around, but it's still a LOT! Here's a million dollars' worth of $100s, standing at around 3 and a half feet tall.
