One billion is a 1 with nine zeros: 1,000,000,000. Cut it into ten equal chunks, and you get 100,000,000. That’s a one with eight zeros. Easy, right? But here’s the kicker: most of us will never see a hundred million of anything—not dollars, not grains of rice, not even bad takes on Twitter.
If you had a hundred million seconds, you’d be waiting for over three years. Three years! You could binge-watch every single season of Law & Order twice and still have time to argue with your uncle about football.
But we’re not stopping there. No, no—we’re going to feel this number. We’re going to make it weird.
