Here's one way to think about large numbers:
One thousand seconds equals 16 minutes and 40 secondsOne million seconds equals 11 days, 13 hours, 46 minutes and 40 seconds
One billion seconds equals 11,574 days, 1 hour, 46 minutes and 40 second
One trillion seconds equals 31,709 YEARS, 9 months, two weeks, 1 day, 2 hours, 46 minutes and 39 seconds.
The US national debt is $29 trillion. In seconds that would equal almost ONE MILLION YEARS!
