Forty Billion Gallon Tank

Thursday, December 20, 2007 - 12:00 AM

Every thing fun costs $40 billion. It's the exact amount of money that Americans can psychologically deal with before their eyes glaze over and they just spit, scratch their neck, squint at the sun and grunt "yep." Forty billion dollars is like how it takes half an hour to get anywhere in Los Angeles - it's supposed to, but it never, ever does.

Some of the examples I used up there are stupid and I'm too tired to look up more samples, but I know this is a thing. Why not find your own examples of things that cost $40 Billion?

Thanks to Pinguino and Cupcake Enthusiast/Badass MC, we have more things that cost $40 billion.
  1. Pets.
  2. Software Piracy.
  3. Nuclear Submarines.
  4. 140 Jets.
  5. Vladmir Putin.
