1 billion is now generally accepted as 1,000,000,000 due to a thousand million being a yank billion. Which is stupid but there you go.

Yep the US billion is different to the UK billion, like said the US billion a thousand million, where as a UK is a million million

Guys the number of noughts this note means by Trillion is quite easy to see if you look at the note itself.

But the us billion does correspond more nicely to kilo, mega, giga etc.

The Congo wants $500 Billion Dollars from us.

I vote nuke them from orbit.

There was a story a while back that an African delegate was over here in Oslo and was referred to as 'Dr Bongo from the Congo'. Sour grapes ?

Why not give them one of these original african 100 Trillion dollar notes? For the rest, there's still an amount of 199 taxi drivers to kill
