Recall a million is 10**6 a billion is 10**9 a trillion is 10**12 and a quadrillion is 10**15. Or say mega, giga, tera and peta dollars to use the international suffixes. Talking about a Terabuck makes sense since people know what a terabyte is. Note: Comments are moderated by the editor and are subject to editing. Other reader comments on this item
