The difference between a million and a billion

queenciityconfidential:

I dont think people really understand how vastly different somone being a millionaire is from someone being a billionaire. People have this idea that its basically the same thing but billionaires are just normal rich people who can afford more stuff than millionaires when a billionaire is a completely different breed. To put it in perspective 1 million seconds is almost 12 days while 1 billion seconds is 31 years. the difference between a millionaire and a billionaire is the difference between 12 days and 31 years
