But how long to get to one trillion? A trillion is a thousand billion. So you'd need to be counting for 31.7 thousand years!
Originally Answered: how long would it take a human being to count to 1 billion one at a time? If you could count continuously in perfect rhythm, one number per second, without breaks for sleeping, eating, and you know LIVING... It would take 31 years, 251 days, 6 hours, 50 minutes, 46 seconds.
MyFox Houston quotes University of Houston professor Jim Granato as saying that it would take someone more than 31,000 years to count to one trillion. Where does this estimate come from? Recall that a trillion is a thousand billion, and a billion is a thousand million.
That's more than anyone could eat in a lifetime! How long would it take to count to 1 billion? Too long! Counting to 1 billion nonstop would take almost 32 years.
Have you ever tried to count to a million? Counting once per second (easy at the start, but tough when you reach the hundred-thousand mark), 24 hours per day, seven days per week (no weekends off), it would take you 11 days, 14 hours to count to one million!
If someone then gave you a billion dollars and you spent $1,000 each day, you would be spending for about 2,740 years before you went broke.
A billion seconds is 31 years. A trillion seconds is 31,688 years.

Googol: A googol is most easily expressed as 10100. That means it is a one followed by one hundred zeros. The number was referenced by Edward Kasner in his 1940 book, Mathematics and the Imagination, according to Live Science.
the last one for which I did the math is one sextillion (21 zeros) and get ready – it would take my laptop exactly 7708 years, 292 days, 6 hours, 43 minutes and 52 seconds to iterate up to that value.
(US, Britain, Australia, short scale) A trillion billion: 1 followed by 21 zeros, 1021.
There is no biggest, last number … except infinity. Except infinity isn't a number. But some infinities are literally bigger than others.
According to the Guiness Book of World Records, the highest number ever counted to out loud by a person is one million. It took Jeremy Harper, a computer engineer from Birmingham, Alabama, 89 days to complete the task. He read the numbers aloud from a computer screen so that he did not lose his place.
So, one billion seconds is about 31 years and 8 months long.
Answer: To count 1 quadrillion it would take around 31.688 million years at the rate of 1 count per second. Explanation: Let us suppose, it takes 1 second to count every number, Then 1 quadrillion takes just over 31.688 million years.
This is because for each counting number, an, there is a consecutive counting number that is found by adding 1 to an. This tells us that we can always go one higher than any given counting number. Thus, we can never reach a highest counting number. Instead, we say that the counting numbers go on forever to infinity.
After a billion, of course, is trillion. Then comes quadrillion, quintrillion, sextillion, septillion, octillion, nonillion, and decillion.
Mathematically, if we see infinity is the unimaginable end of the number line. As no number is imagined beyond it(no real number is larger than infinity).
When are / were you ONE BILLION seconds old? ONE BILLION seconds is just over 31 years, if you enter the time and date of your birth, the system will work out the date that marks the passing of ONE BILLION seconds!
In $100 bills: $1 Million would fill a briefcase. $1 Billion would fit on ten standard pallets. $1 Trillion would cover a football field to a depth of 7 feet.
1 year = 365*24*60*60 = 31,536,000 seconds. So 1 billion seconds = 1,000,000,000 /31,536,000 = 31.71 years. Answer. Do you feel older or younger than your age?
If stacked, the $1 billion in $100 bills would be 10,000 feet tall – imagine 10 Eiffel Towers stacked on top of each other.
Wanted to fly a plane, but never could? With $100 billion, you could just buy around 250 Boeing 747s and set up your own private airline. To live like a King, you could buy the world's largest royal domain The Palace of Versailles for $50 billion, which has 700 rooms, 600 paintings, 400 sculptures and 1,400 fountains.
How to Spend $75 Billion to Make the World a Better Place (2013) by Bjorn Lomborg is a short summary of The Copenhagen Consensus project that got experts in various areas to work out the cost benefit ratios of various forms of aid and then got a panel of economists including multiple Nobel Prize winners to judge them.
