What will 1 billion dollars buy?

Question

Also, how would you define the value of 1 billion dollars and what would you buy if you had 1 billion dollars?

Answer 1

an evening with you

Answer 2

If you put $1 billion into a bank savings account earning 5% per year, your interest income alone would be about $1 million per week. Assuming that you could spend $1 million per week, you would still have $1 billion in the savings account at the end of the year.

Answer 3

It will buy you the World!
I would divide it up first of all: investments, savings, assist family with mortgages, contribute in a special and important way for a good cause, have a trip around the world, and buy you something very special!

Isn't it interesting - for in days gone by one would say 'a million dollars' - you use 'billion' and very shortly it will be 'trillion' then 'zillion' - after all, it is only a 'number'!!!

Answer 4

Another 1 billion. Remember many makes many

Answer 5

Probably a very good drug habit if you didn't earn it. If you did earn it you probably already know what it will buy, usually something that will make another billion.

Answer 6

About half a Trident nuclear submarine (w/o missiles).

If I had $1 billion I'd give half of it away.

Answer 7

It would buy One thousand Millionaires.

Answer 8

Quite a few thingd I'd like to have!

Answer 9

It would buy about 1,538,462 ounces of Gold @ $650 per ounce or about 47.85 metric tonnes of Gold @ $650 per ounce.

But what I'd really, really use it for, would be to get Ron Paul nominated & elected to President.
