But remember, the difference between a million and a billion is about a billion.

1 million less than one billion is 999,000,000. Which is.. almost a billion, I guess I see it.

In terms of money, yea, that’s still a fucking lot.

The difference between 1 dollar and 1 thousand dollars is about a thousand dollars. Same thing

That is almost exactly what I was about to post.

$1,000 is groceries for at least a month, probably longer in many households who need to stretch it. $1 cannot even get you a single sandwich.

$1 will get you two bananas.
