People don’t appreciate the difference between a Million and a Billion. I did the calculations myself, a million seconds account for almost a week and a half, but a billion seconds accounts for almost 32 years. (1/2)

That’s crazy, right? If you want to be a millionaire I can give you $5000 a day for 6 months and you’ll be a millionaire. But, if I give you $5000 a day for 547 years, then you’ll be a billionaire (2/2)

A little context here, the calculations are in dollars because being called a Millionaire in our economy and currency is not exactly valued to our definition of being a millionaire. To explain it further, a millionaire in India is a person who has assets worth 10,00,000 INR. But-

A millionaire w.r.t. dollars, is a person has assets worth around 6,48,00,000 INR. In the end, don’t let anyone who is not even worth a million dollars tell you that you can never be worth a million dollars. That’s complete BS.
