We have often wondered what
words “a billion dollars” have
been bandied about the last few
years might lead one to believe
that a billion isn't a very large
sum of money. Some idea of what
a billion dollars really is may he
gained from this illustration: A
man with 85,Got) annual income
would have to work 2<>0,00O year-
to earn a billion dollars, or it
would require 200,000 men work
ing a year at an animal salary o'
