Millions

Just in case you ever have to truly understand really big numbers (like blades of grass, national debt, how many times you direct people to the washroom, etc.) an old friend showed me this comparison:

One Million seconds is about 277 hours or approximately 11.5 days

One Billion seconds is about 277,777 hours or approximately 11,574 days or 31.5 years

One Trillion seconds is about 277,777,777 hours or approximately 11,574,074 days or 31,709 years.

One Quadrillion seconds is about 277,777,777,777 hours or approximately 11574074074 days or 31,709,791 years.

Now put that into bailout estimates - Yuck,
