The US Dollar bill size is 2.61 inches wide by 6.14 inches long, and the thickness is 0.0043 inches.
The current Canadian dollar bill size is Width: 152.4 mm, Height: 69.85 mm, Weight: 0.934 g
Unfortunately this thing of Beauty ($1000 Bill) was retired from circulation in 2000 and will maybe soon lose it's legal tender (become worthless!) :-(
Money didn't last long (no pun intended). A $1 bill lasts 18 months; $5 bill, two years; $10 bill, three years; $20 bill, four years; and $50 and $100 bills, nine years. Bills that get worn out from everyday use are taken out of circulation and replaced.
A packet of one hundred $100 bills is less than 1/2" thick and contains $10,000. Fits in your pocket easily and is more than enough for week or two of shamefully decadent fun.
Believe it or not, this next little pile is $1 Million (100 packets of $10,000). You could stuff that into a grocery bag and walk around with it as long as you shut the fuck up. $1 Million would weigh 20.4 pounds in $100 bills since you need 490 notes to make a pound.
While a measly $1 Million looked a little unimpressive, $100 Million is a little more respectable. It fits neatly on a standard pallet...
And $1 BILLION dollars... now we're really getting somewhere...
Next we'll look at ONE TRILLION dollars. This is that number we've been hearing so much about. What is a trillion dollars? Well, it's a million million. It's a thousand billion. It's a one followed by 12 zeros.
You ready for this?
It's pretty surprising.
Go ahead...

Ladies and gentlemen... I give you $1 TRILLION...
Notice those pallets are double stacked.
...and remember those are $100 bills.
Wow! I love this one!! Tattooed Trillionaire 4 Life!
So the next time you hear someone toss around the phrase "Trillion dollars"... that's what they're talking about.
