"A thousand is a one with three zeros after it.
A million is a thousand times bigger than that, and it’s a one with six zeros after it.
A billion, then, is a thousand times bigger than a million, and it’s a one followed by 9 zeros.
And a trillion is a thousand times bigger than that, and it’s a one followed by 12 zeros.
So a trillion is a thousand billion, which means it is a million millions.
Keep this lesson in mind as we discuss the total accumulated debts and liabilities of the US, which total many tens of trillions of dollars. "
